1 Community Survey 2014 Brown University Department of Public Safety Prepared by the Office of Institutional Research for the Department of Public Safety

2 Summary of Results The Community Survey was administered by the Department of Public Safety (DPS) during February and March The overall response rate of known populations was approximately 18%. Just over half of the respondents had an interaction with DPS in the previous two years, primarily for service requests or in-person contact with personnel. Responding officer(s) were seen as professional and knowledgeable. The overall service of DPS was rated as excellent by 66%. Participation in DPS programs varied widely with 49% responding that they had not participated in any programs. Most participation was reported in Safewalk (21%) and Operation ID Property Registration (13%); participants found these programs to be useful and informative. There was a reported desire to have more programs devoted to crime prevention and personal safety, as well as more safety information and media campaigns. Crime advisories were found to be very useful and informative by 49%; the preferred method of communication was through (83%) Feelings of safety vary widely depending upon the situation. Walking with a Safewalker was evaluated as the safest activity (2% unsafe/somewhat unsafe), while walking back to an off-campus residence was seen as the most unsafe (36% unsafe/somewhat unsafe). Introduction and Methodology The Department of Public Safety (DPS) periodically surveys the Brown University community as part of the Department s reaccreditation with the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies. The webbased Community Survey was most recently administered in February and March of 2014, providing faculty, staff, students, and others to provide feedback to DPS on the following topics: Services Rendered and Performance Rating nature of the respondent s most recent contact with DPS and satisfaction with the response Crime Prevention and Community Relations respondent s participation in and rating of DPS programs; interest in safety topics; rating of crime advisories and notifications Perception ratings of competency and behavior of DPS officers; safety at Brown The community was invited to participate via Morning Mail and the DPS website. As an added incentive for completing the survey, active members of the Brown community were eligible to win an ipad. Brown University 2 Office of Institutional Research

3 Due to the survey being open to anyone with access to Morning Mail or the DPS website, it is not possible to determine the exact number of individuals in the survey population. However, the population of faculty, staff, and students were estimated using Brown s official fall semester census counts, which were provided to the U.S. Department of Education through the Integrated Postsecondary Educations Data System (IPEDS). The breakdown of population, respondents, and response rates are found below. Affiliation Response Rates by Affiliation to Brown Population (IPEDS) Number of Valid Responses Response Rate Faculty/Visiting Faculty 1, % Staff 3, % Undergraduate Student 6,455 1,214 19% Graduate Student 2, % Medical Student % Sub-Total (known population) 13,617 2,431 18% Visitor n/a 6 n/a Parent n/a 5 n/a Other Affiliate(please specify) n/a 25 n/a Total n/a 2,467 n/a A total of 2,645 people entered the survey. However, 178 individuals were excluded from analysis due to only providing an affiliation or not answering any questions. This report provides overall results of the 2,467 responses listed above, not taking into account a person s affiliation. Responses by affiliation are found in the Appendix. Respondents who identified as other affiliation provided an additional description, which commonly included post-docs, medical residents or fellows, and alumni. In the appendix, responses from faculty and staff were aggregated into one group and visitors, parents, and other affiliates were grouped together as "other." In addition to providing an affiliation, respondents were asked to self-identify by race/ethnicity and gender. The table below shows the racial and gender identity distributions of those who provided an answer. Race/ethnicity Racial/Ethnic and Gender Identity % Providing Race Gender % Providing Gender Black (Non-Hispanic) 5.2% Female 63.4% Hispanic 5.9% Male 35.8% Asian/Pacific Islander 16.1% Gender Neutral 0.8% Native American/Alaskan Native 0.2% White (Non-Hispanic) 65.4% Multiracial 5.5% Other 1.5% Brown University 3 Office of Institutional Research

4 Services Rendered and Performance Rating The survey first asked respondents if, in the past two years, they had personally had an interaction with a member of the Department of Public Safety (DPS). Just over half (56%) answered that they had interacted with DPS. Among those who had an interaction, 94% were satisfied with the response and/or service rendered. Had Interaction with DPS Don't remember, 4% Satisfied with Response No, 6% Yes, 56% No, 40% Yes, 94% In person contact with personnel and service calls were the most likely reasons cited for having had an interaction with DPS. Respondents who marked "service" were asked to further clarify the type of service they received. Gaining access to a building, either because of a lock out or after hours, was the service request most often cited (59%).

6 Crime Prevention and Community Relations DPS provides a number of educational programs and services to the Brown community. The survey asked respondents if they had participated in any of these programs and, if so, to rate its usefulness. Nearly half indicated that they had not participated in any programs, Safewalk service was used by 21%, and Operation ID Property Registration was used by 13%.

8 Perception The final section of the survey asked participants to consider the competency, attitudes, behaviors, and visibility of DPS officers and staff. Additionally, questions about safety in various scenarios were presented. DPS and its personnel were seen by most participants as competent (59%) or extremely competent (40%) and were rated as being very respectful (38%). 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% 1% Competency of DPS 59% 40% Incompetent Competent competent Attitudes and Behaviors of Officers respectful 27% Very respectful 38% Respectful 28% Fairly respectful 6% Disrespectful 1% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% Satisfaction with the visibility of uniformed police and public safety officers was generally high 54% were satisfied, while 40% were very satisfied. DPS also contracts the services of an external security group, otherwise known around campus as "Yellow Jackets." Most respondents were aware of Yellow Jackets (80%) and were either made to feel somewhat safe (46%) or very safe (33%) by their presence. 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% Satisfaction with Visibility of Uniformed Police 6% 54% 40% Not satisfied Satisfied Very satisfied Sense of Safety from "Yellow Jacket" Security They make me feel very safe They make me feel somewhat safe They don't make me feel any safer I don't have an opinion 7% 14% 33% 46% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% While there was general satisfaction with the visibility of uniformed DPS officers, there were hours of the day where respondents indicated they would like to see increased visibility. Between midnight and 3:00 a.m. was a common timeframe for more visibility. There were also areas around the Brown campus where an increased officer presence was desired, particularly around Thayer Street. Among those who marked "other" area, the Jewelry District/Downtown was the most common response (21% of the write-in answers). Brown University 8 Office of Institutional Research

These situations included walking to an off-campus residence, which was deemed the most unsafe, and walking with a Safewalker, which was evaluated as the safest.
