KXAN.com uncovers confidential memo exposing UT’s protest handling details
A leaked memo obtained by KXAN News has revealed the inside details of the University of Texas at Austin’s response to recent protests on campus. The memo, which was written by UT’s Vice President for Campus Safety and Security, outlines the university’s preparations for dealing with potential protests and outlines the tactics that will be used to maintain order on campus.
According to the memo, UT officials have been closely monitoring social media and other channels for information about potential protests. The university has also been in communication with local law enforcement agencies to coordinate their response to any protests that may occur on campus.
The memo goes on to outline the various tactics that will be used to maintain order during protests, including the use of barricades and barriers to control crowds, as well as the deployment of additional law enforcement officers to help keep the peace.
In response to the leaked memo, UT officials have stated that they take the safety and security of their students, faculty, and staff seriously and are committed to maintaining a safe and welcoming campus environment for all members of the community.
The memo comes at a time of heightened tensions on college campuses across the country, as students and faculty grapple with issues of racism, sexism, and other forms of discrimination. UT has been the site of several high-profile protests in recent years, including demonstrations against campus carry laws and the presence of Confederate statues on campus.
As the university prepares for potential protests in the future, it remains to be seen how effectively UT officials will be able to maintain order and ensure the safety of all members of the campus community. In the meantime, students and faculty continue to advocate for change and push for greater transparency and accountability from university officials.
