What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Berea College?

Berea College has campus security measures that include around-the-clock patrols, emergency telephone or alarm devices, controlled residence-hall entrances, and late-night escort or transportation assistance. Students should learn the current method for requesting help and receiving emergency alerts when they arrive.

The college also publishes an annual security report under federal reporting requirements. That report is the appropriate place to examine reported campus crime by category and year; its statistics have defined geography and reporting rules and cannot fully describe an individual's safety. Students seeking help with sexual misconduct should use the college's current reporting and support procedures, which distinguish emergency assistance from formal institutional reporting.
