weeks, I have been gathering surplus items together from various labs/offices
and storing them at the end of the hallway down on the first floor of our
building. On Monday, September 19, it was discovered that a large portion of
these items have been “removed” as I prepared to send these items to property.
Campus policy dictates I must report this incident to Public Safety as a theft
crime – <b>Public Safety now has a complete list of all the missing
equipment, including their serial and State tag numbers.</b><span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal"><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><span> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal"><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif">It is understandable
that some would consider it a waste to send any equipment off to surplus,
thereby giving it new home or new purpose. But protocol is such that the
transfer of State property belonging to the ECE department must be processed
through me so I can properly document who has possession of this property. Once
this process is complete, the item can then be kept indefinitely in any lab or
office.<span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal"><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><span> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal"><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif">I realize that anybody
could have removed this equipment, including students and transients so I want
to get the word out to everybody. If by chance you know of anyone in possession
of these items, please advise them to contact me ASAP or simply return the
items back to the 1st floor hallway. Worth noting - while I can assign
equipment to employees here on campus, I cannot assign equipment to students.<span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal"><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><span> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal"><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif">If, by chance, any of
this equipment is in your possession, please contact me ASAP before the crime
report is finalized on October 1st so I can properly document the new
location this of equipment; or if you wish to relinquish the equipment, you can
simply return it to me or the surplus pile on the 1st floor so it can go
to property. This will be the only “No Questions Asked” period provided. <span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal"><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><span> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal"><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif">Once the crime report
is finalized October 1st, any unauthorized possession of stolen equipment may
lead to arrest by Public Safety which may also lead to other consequences
provided by law.<span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal"><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"> <span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal"><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif">Thank you for your
