Tips to help protect yourself from crime

We have instituted many programs at ÀÏ˾»úµ¼º½allup to ensure your safety while on campus, but safety really begins with you. Here are some safety tips:

• If you go out for a late night snack or study break, go with a friend, not alone.
• Walk purposefully. Look confident. Watch where you are going. Be alert to your surroundings.
• Use well-lighted, well-traveled routes. Avoid short cuts through isolated areas.
• Lock all doors and close all windows when leaving your car, whether it is for a few minutes or for several hours.
• Have keys ready when you approach your car. Check the car for intruders before entering and lock your door immediately after getting into your car.
• Always lock your bike or motorcycle when leaving it unattended, even if it is only for a few minutes. Use the U-shaped high security lock whenever possible.
• If you witness a crime, call ÀÏ˾»úµ¼º½allup Police immediately.
• List only first initials and last name in telephone directories.
• Hang up immediately on obscene telephone calls.
• Don't keep large sums of money in your office, study area or apartment.
• Lock doors and windows, even if you are just going out for a minute. If you are a victim of a crime or become aware of any suspicious circumstances, call ÀÏ˾»úµ¼º½allup Police immediately.
