The university continues to enhance campus security with the recent selection of a single access-control, or badge reader, system that will eventually replace 15 different systems currently in place across all K-State campuses.
The Gallagher unified badge-access solution, recommended by a university task force on security and safety, will enable the university to respond to emergency events more quickly and efficiently from a centralized location. It will physically secure various facilities and spaces across all K-State campuses.
The solution will roll out gradually across the university, first with new construction initiatives and facilities undergoing major renovations. Other existing access systems will transition once they reach the end of their lifecycles.
