According to DeLisle, purchase and installation of the speed bumps cost Campus Safety about $1000, which came out of their regular operating budget. The e-mail message that campus safety distributed to all Clarkson students on Thursday noted that the speed bumps were "of no cost to students..." By this, Campus Safety meant that the student body was not required to pay extra tuition for their purchase and installation. The speed bumps were made of hard plastic and were manufactured by Barco Products.
The removal of the speed bumps has been classified as "grand larceny," a criminal offense. Potsdam local police are cooperating with Campus Safety to help find the people responsible. Although Campus Safety have received some leads, DeLisle states that "nothing significant has come up yet."
Campus Safety intends to reinstall the speed bumps in the spring, after the cold weather is gone, to prevent damage from snow plows and frost." Until then, the bumps are being stored for the winter in Walker Center.
