Safety

Thinking Safe at All Times

• If it is after dark, walk with a group whenever possible
• Off campus - after dark, walk without talking on a Cell Phone or listening to your Ipod.
• Take measures to be aware of your surroundings at all times.
• On campus - poles with red phones attached to them can be used at any time to contact Public Safety.
• Keep your wallet secure while riding buses and subways to avoid pickpockets
• Never ride in a regular car that says it is a taxi
• Keep the number of a taxi service in your phone for emergencies
