  1. Thefts occur everywhere…
    even on campuses. Watch your property and be observant of persons around you, especially when studying in libraries and when in the cafeteria.
  2. Lock your vehicle…
    don't leave valuables inside and in plain sight.
  3. Avoid walking alone…
    especially during late hours.
  4. Report suspicious situations…
    such as persons loitering in parking areas and unoccupied areas.
  5. Don't assist strangers…
    call the Police. if someone needs help. We will be glad to help them.
  6. Park legally and drive safely…
    Citations are issued to those who do not comply with campus regulations and traffic laws. We are concerned for your safety, not the number of citations we write.
