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

Davidson provides campus safety services that include around-the-clock security patrols, emergency telephone or alarm devices, controlled residence-hall entrances and a late-night escort or transportation option. These measures are resources for reporting concerns and getting assistance, not a guarantee against incidents.

Students should learn how to contact campus police or public safety, receive emergency alerts and report an urgent concern. Davidson's published emergency procedures and annual security report provide the appropriate details for current contacts and federally reported campus-crime statistics. The college also has channels for reporting sexual misconduct and seeking support; a student deciding where to turn should distinguish confidential support resources from offices required to act on a formal report.
