This risk assessment evaluates hazards for a student named Patrick Carson taking photos around the college campus. In the courtyard by the Kitson building, wet weather could cause slips but paths are designated and students will be careful. In the stairwell, tripping or slipping risks are minor but caution signs are in place. In the blue screen room, tripping over equipment or breaking fragile equipment are possible but most equipment is out of the way; any equipment should be moved if possible and students should be cautious.
