SUBJECT:

Ensuring Workplace Safety

In this time of increased societal concerns about workplace safety, we
want to reassure each of you that UCSD is committed to maintaining a safe
environment for all faculty, staff and students. In keeping with this
commitment, you should be aware that any reported threats of physical
violence will be taken seriously and investigated. Such threats are
considered serious misconduct and may be the basis for disciplinary action.

When there are reasons to be concerned that the health, safety or
well-being of members of the University community are endangered,
a licensed mental health practitioner may be called upon to evaluate
the individual making the threat.

If you or someone you know receives a threat of physical violence from
someone inside or outside the UCSD community, please report it immediately
to one of the following offices:
