A report released by the advisory group on June 2 called for an increase in the amount and detail of information in HUPD’s public police log.

Catalano said that while HUPD has taken the recommendation into consideration, the changes made to the log this past week were not a result of the advisory group’s report and mark no expansion in content.

“We felt that [the advisory group’s] request was legitimate and whenever possible we will prove more detailed information in the narrative,” Catalano said. “But we are not going to infringe on somebody’s privacy rights.”

Scott F. Goldman ’04-’05—who served as the Undergraduate Council representative on the advisory group and co-authored an addendum to the group’s final report criticizing the procedures of the committee and the content of the final report—said that while he sees the changes to the log as positive steps forward, he would still like to see more changes made.

“They definitely make sense as good changes, and if they were related to the committee they would be good first steps,” Goldman said. “If this is the end of it then this would be kind of disappointing to the committee. I definitely got some impression that content would be beefed up a little.”

While Catalano did not indicate that specific content changes had been made to the logs, he said that HUPD has made every effort to give the public as much information as possible.
