WVII Interviews Dean Dana, Students About Campus Safety
WVII (Channel 7) spoke with several University of Maine students and Robert Dana, UMaine’s vice president for student life and dean of students, about college campus safety in the wake of a student’s disappearance at the University of Virginia. Students interviewed said they are aware of helpful resources on campus and urge others to use common sense when faced with a potentially dangerous situation. “The first thing we do is try to get students to recognize they are in a real world. That they have responsibility of themselves and to each other and to be a community,” Dana said, adding when most UMaine students see something, they say something.
