>   (www.nacole.org) that was supposed to be in Miami on
>   Oct. 23-25 was cancelled and moved to Dec. 11-14. 
>   I'm still planning on going.  It was cancelled
>   because of the hurricane that went through Miami at
>   that time.

>   In addition, there's another meeting tomorrow of the
>   Police Review Task Force (I believe.) in the Urbana
>   City Council Chambers.  I hope everyone can come.

>
>   Do you support the creation of a Policy Review Board
>   to be created to review complaints regarding the
>   University Police and review University Police
>   policies?
>
>    
>
>   Explanation 1:
>
>   The purpose of the University Police Complaint and
>   Policy Review Board will be to ensure fairness in
>   disputes between UIUC students/faculty/staff and the
>   University Police and work to give UIUC
>   students/faculty/staff a voice in University
>   Policing.  The Board would be comprised of only
>   students, staff, and faculty. The University Police
>   Complaint and Policy Review Committee, if cre ated,
>   would serve to:  (1) investigate any complaints that
>   arise concerning the University Police from any
>   University Community member; and (2) review current
>   University Police policies and make recommendations.
>
>   This committee should be comprised of at least 50%
>   students and should have the power to call witnesses
>   and fully investigate any complaints regarding
>   police conduct that arise.  Although your vote on
>   this issue is not binding, it will show the
>   administration the opinion of the student body on
>   this issue.
