To everyone who has been an active supporter of the Campus Safety Es**rt Service (colloquially known as CSES) thank you from the bottom of our hearts! We could not have run this service for 52 years without the folks who used the service!

To our volunteers over the years, thank you for your dedication to keeping your fellow Highlanders safe. You all created a unique and wonderful community within the Women’s Resource Center, and we are so grateful for your hard work and enthusiasm for campus safety. We could not have run this program without your help!

And to our CSES Chairs, past and present, thank you for your leadership and passion for CSES! You all helped foster a welcoming and supportive environment for the CSES volunteers and patrons, and we are so grateful for every long night spent ensuring that students got to their destinations safely.

You are all part of the WRC’s legacy, and you will always have a home at the center. This is CSES signing off! Thanks for the memories!
