What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Adams State University?

Adams State reports around-the-clock security patrols and emergency telephone or alarm devices, along with electronically controlled residence-hall entrances and a late-night escort or transportation service. Students should learn how to request assistance and receive emergency notifications when they enroll, since procedures and service hours can change.

The university's public safety and student-support processes also matter for reporting a crime, a threat, or sexual misconduct. Its annual security report is the appropriate place to review published campus crime statistics and applicable reporting procedures. Those figures cover specified locations and reporting periods; by themselves, they do not measure every safety concern an individual student may face.
