The maintenance and safety of all campus facili- ties is under the direction of Mr. John A. Golds- worth. Since Western has been developing physically at such a tremendous rate, Mr. Golds- worth has had many important responsibilities as supervisor of the construction of all new buildings. Mr. Goldsworth will be retiring in June after many yeai ' s of fine service to Western Michigan University. Western Michigan University maintains its own police force in the form of the Campus Safety and Security Force. The men that make up this organi- zation are continuously on the alert for the welfare of the students. A common sight at Western is the green truck that patrols the campus area, enforcing uniform parking regulations and guarding the policies of the University. Mr. John A. Goldsworth Director of the Physical Plant L. Bert Earl, Chief Security Officer, Keith Sheeler, Director, and Robert Wirbel, Chief Safety Officer, confer over the best method of securing the safety of Western ' s 14,000 students. 26
