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

Chicago State University reports around-the-clock security patrols and emergency telephone or alarm devices, as well as a late-night escort or transportation service. Residence-hall entrances are reported to use electronic access controls.

Students should learn how CSU sends emergency alerts, where to report an urgent incident, and how to request an escort before they need one. The university's annual security report is the appropriate place to examine its published crime statistics, reporting procedures, and prevention policies; those figures reflect defined reporting categories and locations rather than every incident a student might experience. Students seeking support after sexual misconduct should consult CSU's current Title IX reporting and confidential-support information, since those channels serve different purposes.
