Cam­pus Safety Re­minders

 -  -  89


MISHAWAKA—As the se­mes­ter comes to a close, the well-be­ing of the stu­dents is the most im­por­tant goal for Cam­pus Safety. In an in­ter­view with Head of Cam­pus Safety Paul Neel, he gave a cou­ple of re­minders to keep in mind for the last few weeks of the school year and as you start to think about head­ing home. 

  • Keep your ve­hi­cle locked and any valu­ables stored out of sight. 
  • As you move around cam­pus, do not let your elec­tron­ics dis­tract you from your sur­round­ings. Be­ing aware of who and what is around you is the best way to avoid dan­ger. 
  • Uti­lize the safe ride and safe walk ser­vice from Cam­pus Safety, es­pe­cially when you are alone late at night. 
  • Do not leave doors and win­dows propped open un­at­tended.  This hap­pens of­ten as the weather warms and can cre­ate se­cu­rity threat for peo­ple and prop­erty. 
  • Be­fore you make the trip home for the sum­mer, make sure your ve­hi­cle is in good work­ing or­der and is ser­viced, so you can com­plete your trip safely. 
  • If you see any­one or any­thing that looks sus­pi­cious or out of place, con­tact Cam­pus Safety im­me­di­ately.
