Safety Tips

 


SAFETY TIPS 
 

  • Always be alert and aware of your surroundings and show a confident attitude.

     
  • All suspicious activity should be reported to Safety & Security Services (375-2525) on campus and the Cattaraugus County Sheriff's Office (911) off campus. Timely reports of information make it easier for the police to gather critical evidence, increase the odds of recovering stolen property and successfully prosecuting a criminal.

     
  • Avoid walking alone at night. Walk with a group, take a University shuttle bus, or call Safety & Security for an escort. If you must walk alone, please make sure to use well-lighted paths and sidewalks and take the most direct route.

     
  • Keep your doors locked (room and vehicle). Do not prop open residence hall building or floor doors. This is an invitation for trespassers.

     
  • Do not lend your keys or ID card to anyone - even your friends. Not everyone will take the same care as you.
     
  • Report all emergency maintenance problems (broken locks, windows, etc.) to Maintenance (375-2622) immediately. After hours, report problems to Safety & Security Services (375-2525).

     
  • Attend security awareness programs held on campus for valuable information and safety tips.

     
  • Identify your valuables: register your bicycle with Safety and Security Services.

     
  • Use crosswalks and pedestrian crossing signals to safely cross streets.

     
  • Be aware of campus and local crime trends. You are your best protection, so educate yourself.
