The following is sent on behalf of Alan Simms, Associate Vice-President
(Administration):
To: All Staff, Students and Faculty at the University of
Manitoba
At approximately 11:00 pm last night a University of Manitoba student was
walking westbound on McDermot Avenue to her car parked at a meter beside E
Lot when a male, riding a bicycle, approached and brandished a knife and
demanded her purse. The student complied and the suspect fled south through
H Lot then west into the alley between McDermot and Tecumseh. The student
was unharmed. The theft is currently under investigation by the Winnipeg
Police Service.
The suspect was described as Aboriginal male, 30-35 years of age,
approximately 6 feet tall, with grey hair, wearing a dark hat, dark hooded
sweatshirt, and grey pants.
We would like to remind all staff, students and Faculty at both the
Bannatyne and Fort Garry campuses to be aware of your surroundings when
walking at night. To protect yourself, walk with a friend or co-worker or
contact SafeWalk at 474-9312 for an Officer escort at anytime of the day or
night.
This is a test of the University of Manitoba's emergency notification system (ENS). On a regular basis, the University tests the ability to send uregent / emergency messages. During a true emergency instruction would be provided. Report problems to emergency(a)umanitoba.ca.

To: All Staff, Faculty and Students
From: Deborah McCallum, Vice-President (Administration)

Re: Labour Relations Update - AESES-UMSS (Security Services)
As of Wednesday, August 18, 2010, the University of Manitoba and AESES-UMSS
(Security Services) have not been successful in reaching a collective
agreement.
In the event that the University's final offer is not accepted by the
members as of Friday, August 20, 2010, an impasse will have been reached and
either strike action or a lockout would occur. This would apply only to
Security Services Patrol Officers and Supervisors and would not apply to the
AESES main bargaining unit.
Should a strike or lockout occur:
(i) the University will continue to operate in the normal
course. Scheduled classes will continue to be held and support services
will be maintained;
(ii) the University will ensure that security is maintained
through the services of one or more security firms. Contact Linda Lavallee,
Director Security Services at 474-8709, with any particular concerns that
may need to be addressed.
All staff, students and the general public have the right to cross picket
lines. Staff not included in the AESES-UMSS (Security Services) bargaining
unit are expected to work as usual during any strike/lockout of AESES-UMSS
(Security Services) members.
Additional information will be posted on the University's website as it
becomes available.
