MACOMB, IL -- Jump into action and help Western Illinois University win the STANLEY Security "Together for Safer Schools" $150,000 grant! Voting goes until Feb. 13 ... so keep voting online at stanleysaferschools.com/Vote, by tweeting #WIUEDU #STANLEYSecurity and by texting WIUEDU to 334455!

As of today (Feb. 10), Western remains in the #2 spot on the tier 2 leaderboard. Western's rival, Eastern Illinois University, has moved into the #3 spot, so it's time for Leatherneck fans from around the world to move WIU to the first place spot and keep Western there.

The top two schools that receive the most votes in each category will receive grants of security products and services from STANLEY Security. Western is in category two (8,000-19,999 students). The first place school will receive a $150,000 safety grant, with the second place school receiving a $50,000 grant.

Winners will be announced by STANLEY Security March 3. Grant funds can be used for any STANLEY Security products, technologies, solutions, services and installation. This can include video surveillance, access control, intrusion detection, key systems and more.
