The University will begin receiving
security guard protection from a new
company July 1.
Burns Security will be replaced by
State Security. According to Frederick
Davids, director of the Department of
Safety at the University, the change
will not result in significant job losses
among current guards, since ap-
proximately 90 per cent of them will
switch over to the new company.
THE UNIVERSITY employs about 40
security guards, who patrol buildings
and campus grounds after dark.
Davids said the contract was awar-
ded to State Security because it presen-
ted the best overall package in recent
contract bidding. He added that the
Univesity considered a number of
criteria in awarding the contract.
"We took the one that offered the best

package across the board," said
Davids, "including employee benefits."
DAVIDS POINTED OUT that State
Security guards "will not be supporting
a big corporation," and therefore a
smaller percentage of the security fun-
ds will be spent on administrative costs.
Davids also said the University will
benefit in a number of ways from the
new contract. He cited improved
training for guards as well as an
upgraded communications system in
which all guards will be equipped with
two-way radios.
An added benefit, according to
Davids, is that State Security has no
other contracts in the area. This will
lessen the chances that a guard will be
transferred to another site, leaving the
University shorthanded.
State Security will probably have its
offices located on campus, possible in
the old St. Joseph Hospital building.
