I want to thank you all for the hard work that has been done to improve safety culture here in the Voiland College. I\u2019m proud of the work that we are doing to improve safe conditions and procedures throughout the college \u2013 in our buildings, offices, classrooms, and, especially, our laboratories. Ensuring the safety of our students, faculty, and staff is always a top priority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Due to your efforts, and those of the Voiland College Safety Committee, our college was recognized with a safety award at WSU\u2019s recent Safety Fair. Our commitment to safety is reverberating throughout the university, and I\u2019m proud that our college has taken a leadership role in improving safety culture. The members of this committee have worked to make critically important changes without creating undue burden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As the holiday season approaches, I want to remind you that WSU Pullman will be closed November 28 and 29th<\/sup>, December 25 and 26th, and January 1. Buildings are locked during this time although buildings will be accessible by key or using card swipes. There will be reduced holiday operations between December 23-December 31, and most university operations and services will be unavailable during this time. Please remember not to prop exterior doors open during this time, and if you see a door open, please close it. If you are locked out of your area, you can call WSU Safety Services at 509-335-1380 to gain entry with proper identification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Finally, please travel safely to your destinations for a joyful holiday season. Please check road conditions<\/a> before you go, know how to drive on snow and ice (PDF),<\/a> and travel with an emergency supply kit (PDF).<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
