Stay safe on campus at night

Although we encourage you to utilise the Night Safety Shuttle / Night Escort Service, there will be times when you cannot. In those cases follow these guidelines: 

  • Travel with a friend or in a group 
  • Be alert and aware of your surroundings 
  • Avoid dark, vacant or deserted areas; use well-lit, well travelled routes. 
  • Dress in clothes and shoes which will not hamper movement 
If You Sense You Are In Trouble:
  • Move away from the potential threat if possible. 
  • Join any group of people nearby; cross the street and increase your pace. 
  • If a threatening situation is imminent, and people are close by to help, yell, scream or make a commotion in any way you can to get their attention. 
  • Go to an open business. 
  • Call Campus security from a safe location, use campus emergency phones where available.
