A student’s bag was stolen Oct. 11 by a perpetrator driving a black sedan in front of Campus Living (Building 7000). No one was harmed in this incident, but the robber fled the scene. Campus security has increased patrols of Campus Living to ensure the safety of students.
The Safety and Security Department have made the following recommendations for student safety:
- Students should walk in groups, as this deters criminals
- Be vigilant of your surroundings, especially at night; phones and earbuds inhibit your awareness of your surroundings
- If you are worried about walking alone, reach out to campus security for help
If you see something suspicious or an emergency occurs on campus, call Safety and Security at (206) 235-5860. The head of Safety and Security is Sergeant Greg Cranston. You can reach him at [email protected].
