What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Colorado School of Mines?

Campus safety at Colorado School of Mines includes trained personnel on patrol, emergency communication devices and controlled entrances to residence buildings. Late-night escort or transportation assistance has also been reported as available.

Students should learn how Mines issues emergency alerts, where to report an urgent incident and how to request an escort before they need those services. Support and reporting routes for sexual misconduct may differ from ordinary crime reporting, so students should identify the relevant Title IX and confidential-support resources separately. The institution's annual security report is the appropriate source for federally reported campus crime statistics and safety policies; any figures in it need to be read with their reporting years and geographic definitions in mind.
