Students’ and faculty’s most pressing safety concerns regard environmental health. This concern is underlined in the facilities portion of the survey and other surveys conducted by Seattle Central. Some solutions have already been implemented, such as renovation of some bathrooms and improved marking of the no-smoking zone.
Bathrooms: In addition to renovation of the first floor bathrooms, facilities has continued to monitor bathroom cleanliness. IR will work with the teams to help further develop existing forms and formats so that data on cleaning needs is more accessible to the team to continually improve cleaning schedules.
- Smoking: Since the survey, Seattle Central has begun implementation of a multi-faceted program to address the smoking issue. Further research should continue to evaluate the existing issue, as well as approaches as they are developed and implemented. Smokers could be interviewed several times per day over a fixed period of time (1 – 2 weeks) to determine their attitudes and reasoning behind their practice of smoking in a no-smoking area or dropping butts on the ground. This will help the college develop better information to re-direct smokers to planned alternative smoking sites, and to raise the awareness of students of the importance of following the law.
