Partnering with the Office for Off-Campus Student Services

CCW has partnered with the Office for Off-Campus Student Services on several occasions during the Fall 2003 semester, taking part in the Taste of Wescott Street (hosted a table to provide information on safety and CCW), Walk Your Child to School Day (walked with children from a local city school), and Pedestrian Safety Week (stood on various street corners adjacent to campus and handed out fortune cookies with pedestrian safety messages inside). They also worked with this office before the Fall 2003 winter break to walk the east neighborhoods near campus and hand out safety information to students to assist them in preparing for the winter break period.

This has been a positive partnership, as the Office for Off-Campus Student Services funds all the projects we do with them. CCW plans to continue to engage in projects with this office in the fall.

In the fall of 2003, The Office for Off-Campus Student Services donated an office to CCW, to include a computer (also a couch and big screen TV). This is a great example of results that can occur from building partnerships with departments across campus.
