(COLUMBUS,
Ohio)—Ohio Governor Mike DeWine today announced that 33 colleges and
universities in Ohio will receive a total of $5 million in funding
for security projects that enhance the safety of students and staff.
"These funds will go directly toward helping our institutions of
higher education become more secure," said Governor DeWine. "The
importance of campus safety cannot be overstated, and Ohio is
committed to supporting efforts that keep our colleges and
universities safe."
The grant awards are part of the 2022 Campus Safety Grant Program,
which was funded with support from the Ohio legislature in Senate
Bill 310 of the 133rd General Assembly. The Ohio School Safety
Center, which is a division of the Ohio Department of Public Safety,
reviewed the campus safety grant applications in consultation with
the Ohio Department of Higher Education.
Funds will be used to cover expenses associated with physical
security enhancements such as security cameras, door locks, alarms,
public address systems, and metal detectors.
“Part of preparing students for future success is ensuring they
feel safe on their campuses,” said Ohio Department of Education
Chancellor Randy Gardner. “Through these grants, the DeWine-Husted
Administration continues to focus on helping our colleges and
universities provide for the safest learning environments possible.”
To be eligible for grant funding, colleges and universities
conducted a security and vulnerability assessment to identify areas
in need of safety enhancements. November 21, 2022 |
