CAMPUS SECURITY IS AVAILABLE 24 HOURS A DAY

CALL: 739-1111

The Campus Security officers are here to assist you and to help you as you settle in at Schreiner. Whether you need directions or an escort after dark, they'll be there for you.

You should always be aware that the potential for crime is everywhere, even Schreiner University. You should also keep in mind that everyone is responsible for their own personal safety to a certain extent. Here are a few personal safety tips that should always be in the back of your mind.

Personal Safety

· When walking, particularly after dark, it is best to walk with friends. There is safety in numbers.
· If you are in a situation where you have to walk alone, pick out the most direct well-lit path that will get you from point A to point B in the shortest amount of time.
· When walking alone you should always be alert. Be aware of who is around you and make direct eye contact with anyone you come in contact with.
· If you are uncomfortable with walking alone feel free to call Security for a courtesy escort at any time at 739-1111.
· When attending a function where alcohol is accessible, always have a predetermined agreement with a friend that you will look after each other and will leave together. Never leave your drink unattended.
· Let your roommate or another friend know if you will be out late, whom you will be with and where you are going.

Personal Property

Theft and criminal mischief to personal property are the two most often reported crimes on campus. Although our statistics are below the norm, compared to other campuses the size of Schreiner University, you should never feel that you are immune to becoming a victim of theft.
· When leaving your assigned room always lock your doors, even if returning in a short period of time.
· Remember, you are in control of your personal property and should take the time to secure any and all property. Do not take for granted that it will be there when you return if left unsecured. Lock your car doors, secure your bike and other valuable items such as your computer, and put jewelry away in a drawer or a safe place.
