The group discussed the campus-wide and student-organized game, Humans vs. Zombies. There have been concerns and complaints from faculty and staff on campus of the negative impact the game has on the UW community’s sense of security. The group decided it was an issue to be taken up with Student Activities and UWPD. Another option is to make alternative arrangements for work if Humans vs. Zombies affects one’s work environment. Students have been told not to enter buildings and are no longer allowed to use Nerf items.

The committee has decided to complete a charter. The U-Wide committee’s charter will be used as a template for Group 6’s charter. The group will review and approve next month.

EH&S’s AAP template and video are now available for all to use.

The next meeting will be on Thursday, November 16th at 3:00 p.m. in CMU 065

The meeting was adjourned at 3:38 p.m.
