University Adopts “Fixed Camera” Policy to Ensure Appropriate Use

The use of digital video recording devices and digital video monitoring at Miami University has increased steadily in recent years. These devices are primarily used to protect resources, enhance safety and assist in the educational mission. The Camera Installation Policy governs the use of authorized cameras on campus and ensures that such cameras are used judiciously. This new policy was endorsed by the University Senate on March 19, 2007 and will be included in the next update to the Miami University Policy and Information Manual (www.muohio.edu/mupim).

Full text of the policy can be found on the IT Policy web site at www.muohio.edu/itpolicy. If you have any questions or comments concerning this policy, please contact itpolicy@muohio.edu.
