Campus Security Changes Laws At Oregon Colleges

Kaylee's Law, named after Kaylee Sawyer, who was killed by a security officer at Central Oregon Community College in Bend during 2016, promises to change campus security laws for the well-being of students and staff at local Oregon colleges. 

The Southern Oregon University's (SOU) Campus Public Safety team said this law changes procedures on campus and the dress code to help students difference between campus security members and police officers. Right now, the SOU campus security uniform is a dark blue with a patch on the arm, says a news report. Kaylee's Law means campus security will have to create a new uniform. Campus security is considering getting polo shirts and making a different patch that will use SOU's color scheme, according to Andrew MacPherson, the Director of Campus Public Safety, says the report.
