Strengthening the lines of communication
Ensuring that Linfield is a welcoming, supportive and safe community is the responsibility of each of us. Explore the many opportunities for you to become involved and to contribute meaningfully to building the community you would like to see at Linfield.
Associated Students of Linfield University (ASLU)
ASLU is Linfield’s student government organization. ASLU provides student advocacy on both campuses and connects students with social, cultural and educational events and activities. As a nonprofit student government organization, ASLU operates independently of the university.
ASLU Committees on Safety
The ASLU Committees on Safety are a subset of ASLU, the student government. Student members partner with LPS, the DEI office and the Title IX office to serve the Linfield community in a comprehensive and transparent way. The committees have contributed to several initiatives including the implementation of the public safety emergency app and campus lighting projects.
Reach out to ASLU for additional information on student leadership and membership, and how to get involved on either campus.

Monthly listening services
Join us for listening sessions with key administrators on the first Thursday of every month. From time to time these sessions will include short presentations to increase awareness around important issues.
Dates, topics and speakers are announced through Linfield Ahead.
Faculty and staff information sessions
Faculty and staff attend required sessions that focus on important safety topics like suicide prevention, sexual assault reporting and safety in the classroom.
Initial meetings take place in October. Additional sessions and topics are developed as needs arise. Details are also shared at the new faculty orientation session at the beginning of each academic year.
Forward Together Task Force
The Forward Together Task Force has a focused charge to prepare, scope and layout the steps to engage in a university-wide process of listening and discussion. Find additional information about the work, meeting dates, membership or contact information of the task force.
