parking lots, main pedestrian walkways and bike paths, and most campus building
exteriors are lighted either all night long or several hours past the end of
the last class. Several times yearly, the exterior lighting receives a comprehensive
inspection to identify any unreported lighting failures. You are encouraged to
report any exterior lighting problems by either submitting a work order
to Physical Plant Operations via website

Plant at 255-3313, or by calling the Department
of Public Safety at 255-3111.
Trees, Vines, and Shrubs
Campus grounds-keepers trim trees, vines, shrubs, and other
vegetation on a regular basis to maintain campus security. Obstructing
vegetation is trimmed away from pedestrian walkways, building entrances,
windows, and lighting fixtures. You are encouraged to report any specific
concerns regarding vegetation to to Physical Plant Operations via website http://arc/uccs/menupage.cfm,
