<div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" class="">Thanks for your email and update on the situation at the U of O. Glad you were able to get things rolling on your end with Schill and other leadership. We are a little further along in creating some guidelines for faculty
and and having a post election series of talks by our Political Science Faculty. I have attached the letter that will be going out to our faculty in the next few days.

<div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" class="">Elliot you are welcome to use some of our ideas if you think it would help on your campus. I am going to ask our IFS Rep (Goran Jovanovic) to share our draft documents with the IFS leadership. Maybe there are other OUS campuses
also writing similar statements to their faculty/students. It always helps to start off with something to work from.<br class="">

<div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" class="">We have Corvallis PD and the State Troopers on our campus. I am not 100% sure they have a plan either for November 4th (just in case). What I do see around Corvallis is a steady stream of pick up trucks flying the Trump flag
and driving around the city. Likely trying to send a message about their presence.

<div class="ydp67e5b93ayiv2459337962">I was alarmed to learn in our last meeting with President Schill that the admin had not yet conducted a table-top exercise about what to do if there are white supremacist gatherings on or near campus. I think that is a
grim possibility regardless of the outcome of the election. A large gathering of our students in protest or celebration could easily become a target for such a group. An interesting thing Schill noted is that the UO campus is technically closed to the public
because of the pandemic. So, unlike previous instances where hostile and threatening groups have come to campus, we have grounds to bar them from entering or kick them out. Of course, the question of whether UOPD or Eugene PD would be prepared to do that (assuming
armed groups, etc) is unclear. I think this possibility scared Mike enough that he will run through scenarios with our disaster management team.</div>
