Safety on Campus

24-Hour Police Escort Service

This is a reminder that if you are on campus in the evening (or early morning hours) and feel unsafe walking alone across campus, that the Unversity Police provide a free police escort service. This information was sent out with a Campus Crime Alert email just before the break, however, it may have been overlooked. The attached document provides details about the 24-Hour Police Escort Service as well as additional safety precautions to take when traveling by foot on our campus in the overnight or early morning hours. Please share this information with your staff who do not have access to email.
