Share Your Lighting and Safety Concerns
For more than 20 years, Facilities Management, Environment, Health & Safety, Care at the Sexual Assault Resource Center and the UC San Diego Police Department have partnered with the campus to conduct annual Campus Lighting and Safety Review Walks. These walks aim to cover the entire campus footprint and assess safety and lighting issues that can be improved to create a safer environment for our community.
This year, the Lighting and Safety Review Walks will take place every Thursday night in February (Feb 1, 8, 15 and 22) beginning at 6 p.m., lasting about two hours each night. Walks will cover these areas of campus:
- February 1 – Main Campus buildings, including School of Medicine
- February 8 – Residential Housing on Main Campus
- February 15 – Coast, Mesa, One Miramar St., La Jolla Del Sol, Mesa Nueva and Nuevo East and West
- February 22 – Scripps Institution of Oceanography
Anyone on campus can participate! Past representatives included staff and students from Associated Students, GPSA, CARE at SARC, EH&S, UCPD, Transportation Services, Facilities Management, Residential Life, Housing*Dining*Hospitality, Campus Planning and the Library, among others.
If you would like to participate, please sign up here. This Google document also includes information about meeting locations for each night, what to bring and details about the app we’ll use to record data and how to download it to your phone or device.

- Call the Facilities Management Customer Relations help desk at (858) 534-2930
- Submit an online work request to Facilities Management
- Email the information to campuslightingconcerns@ucsd.edu
Thank you for your cooperation. We look forward to working together to make the university a safer place for everyone.
