CS Survey Responses:

Every week Community Safety requests survey responses from those who've had interactions with a member of the Community Safety team. These responses are always collected anonymously with the option for the responder to leave contact information if they would like for a member of Community Safety management to contact them, and are used internally for departmental performance tracking. Community Safety has opted to publish these survey results for transparency and community accountability. *Names and pronouns mentioned in survey responses will be redacted to protect the privacy of individuals.

In addition to surveys sent directly to those who have interacted with Community Safety, the Reed community is always encouraged to independently complete the survey regarding Community Safety's performance.

Unlock		Surpassed expectations	prompt, responsive, kind, helpful!
Unlock		Surpassed expectations	I might compare the excellent service provided by the CSO that helped unlock the chapel doors this week to the terrible service I have still not received from campus Facilities, who were supposed to provide me with a key to the chapel (3rd floor entrance) so I could get into my office (E 321) when the chapel is locked. I still do not have that key.
