The University has many security personnel circulating the campus everyday. The common attire of security officers is usually dark pants, closed in shoes with a dark black or navy and fluro coloured top identifying them as "Security". They are usually carrying a radio. Through their respectable uniform they have an authority and are respected.
Above is a close up of UOW's security office. It is situated in prime location; on Northfields Avenue. Shown in the picture is a blue security phone, which can be used in emergenies.
Now, I don't want to say or make you think that women are weak or can't protect themselves because I don't believe that is true. But as a woman, I can only speak as a woman. I don't know how a man would feel in a situation of darkness and solitary. After late classes, one doesn't exactly get excited about walking in the darkness by themselves. Strange noises and shadows can make an individual think up all sorts of things. The imagination is a wonderful thing!
Ah, Security! Us students are glad you're around! A security guards presence has an air of confidence around it. There is no need to be afraid! It is kind of the same with a police officer, all they have to do... is be there! Thank you to UOW security!
