CRIME PREVENTION MEASURES
Some guidelines from Campus Security on how to stay safe:
Never walk alone, especially at night. Plan to walk in groups or request security to escort you.
| Keep your valuables (such as your cellphone or laptop) hidden and close to you at all times. Never leave items on display (e.g. on your car seat) where they are easily accessibly.
| Criminals prefer to target someone not aware of his/her direct surroundings. If you suspect that someone might be following you, change direction.
|
Carry a whistle and pepper spray at all times to be able to draw attention if needed. Criminals hate attention.
| Do not leave access doors to your vehicle or residence unlocked. Ensure all doors and windows are secure.
| Avoid walking in dark or deserted areas, especially when you exercise early in the morning or late in the afternoon.
