What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Colgate University?
Colgate provides around-the-clock public safety coverage and emergency response resources. Reported measures include 24-hour patrols, emergency telephone or alarm devices, electronically controlled residence-hall entrances, and a late-night transportation or escort service.
Students should learn how to receive campus emergency alerts, request an escort, and report an incident. The university also maintains procedures for reporting sexual misconduct and accessing related support; those processes are distinct from making an emergency call. For a consistent account of reported campus offenses and safety policies, prospective students can review Colgate's annual security report. Its statistics cover defined incidents and locations during specified reporting years, not every risk a student might encounter.
