When In A Emergency Situation

1. Use an Emergency Call Box (Buildings). By pressing the call button on the boxes strategically located in campus buildings, you are automatically put in touch with a safety official. If the button is pushed and you cannot speak into the box, the box will electronically give the location to Public Safety and officers will respond.

2. Use an Emergency Telephone (Parking Lots). No need to dial these phones. By picking up the phone inside the box, the caller is automatically connected to the Public Safety department. If you knock the phone off the cradle, the box will still alarm and officers will respond to the area. *The parking garage phones work in the same manner as the call boxes in the buildings.

3. Dial 2525 or 911. The Public Safety department can be contacted from any campus telephone by dialing Ext. 2525, or from any public or off campus telephone by dialing 287-2525.

The office is open on the Saturday before each quarter from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. but closed on Sundays and Holidays. Officers are on duty 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and may be contacted by the methods listed above.
