[September 11, 2024]

 YU (President CHOI Oe-chool) launched a campus-wide electric kickboard safety campaign to coincide with the start of the second semester. The campaign, held at the university’s main gate, involved about 20 participants, including members from the YU Student Support Team, Safety Management Team, and the Student Clubs Union (Chairman Byeon Sang-jin). 

 This safety campaign was initiated to prevent accidents due to the increasing use of personal mobility devices (PMs) like electric kickboards.The campaign provided students with guidance on the correct usage of personal mobility devices, the importance of wearing helmets while riding, safety rules for using electric kickboards on campus, and designated parking areas for shared kickboards.

BYEON Sang-jin (Chairman of the Student Clubs Union, Junior, Mechanical Engineering) who participated in the campaign stated, "I hope my fellow students will follow safety guidelines to prevent accidents while using personal mobility devices."

HAN Yong-hee, Director of the Student Affairs Office, remarked, "We hope that this campaign helps spread a culture of safe use of electric kickboards and other personal mobility devices on campus, and we will continue to work towards creating a safer campus environment."
