Resolution No. 26
A Resolution encouraging Austin Peay State University’s Student Government
Association to consider co-sponsoring an annual public safety (Public Safety 101) event
with the APSU campus police.
WHEREAS, SGA exists "to serve as the voice of the students, and to make sure their
thoughts and needs are heard and addressed to increase their quality of life”.
WHEREAS, many APSU students do not have a background in public safety, and this
would encourage students to become educated for emergency scenarios (tornados, fires,
stolen property, damaged property, walking safely to your dorm, calling the APSU police
escort service, reporting a crime, etc.)
WHEREAS, this idea would allow students the opportunity to gain knowledge on how to
be the most aware and knowledgeable of who to contact and what to do should they arise
in a confrontational situation on APSU’s campus.
WHEREAS, even though APSU is a safe campus, the information learned through this
public safety seminar will not only apply to on campus situations but those one may
encounter in the future.
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED ON THIS 21ST DAY OF APRIL BY THE 64TH
GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE AUSTIN PEAY STATE UNIVERSITY STUDENT
GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION THAT:
Section 1: Upon passage of this Resolution, the Student Government Association will
annually co-sponsor with the Austin Peay State University Police Department at least one
public safety class open and free to APSU students, faculty and the Clarksville
community per year.
