Dedicated to the health and safety of the Iowa campus community.
Safety and Support Resources from the Division of Student Life
This committee exists to improve the lives of graduate and professional students, promoting excellence in fundamental services to enable our campus community to deliver their best. There are many resources on campus, and this committee aims to ensure graduate and professional students are represented in communication and decision making about campus initiatives. PH&S committee members work on student health and safety concerns for graduate and professional students, coordinating initiatives with many groups and offices on campus including:
Campus Safety Night Rides and Campus Safety Improvement Board
Division of Student Life basic needs (childcare, food, & housing, etc.)
Undergraduate Student Government Health and Safety Committee
Fitness programs with Recreational Services
And building a better campus together with Facilities Management
In addition to these initiatives, the Physical Health and Safety Committee steers GPSG attention and resources to various aspects of campus development, including Parking & Transportation and conversation broadly about our lived experiences in the City of Iowa City.
If you are interested in joining, please reach out to the GPSG Physical Health and Safety committee chair, Jacob Payne. Committee meetings will be held on the last Tuesday of every month at 5:00 pm in Van Allen Hall room #309, and on Zoom.
