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

Capital University reports round-the-clock patrols by trained security personnel, emergency telephone or alarm devices, a late-night escort or transportation service, and electronically controlled residence-hall entrances. These measures describe available resources, not a guarantee that an incident cannot occur.

Students should learn how to contact campus public safety, sign up for emergency notifications, and report a concern. Capital's current annual security report is the appropriate place to review its published crime statistics, reporting procedures, and emergency policies. For sexual misconduct or harassment, students should also identify the university's Title IX reporting and support channels; a request for confidential support may follow a different route from a formal report.
