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

Delta State has a university police and public safety function for reporting campus incidents and responding to emergencies. In an immediate emergency, students should call 911; for nonemergency concerns, they should use the university's current police or public safety contact information.

Students should learn how Delta State distributes emergency notices, where to find its emergency procedures, and how to report sexual misconduct or seek confidential support. The university's annual security report is the appropriate place to review its published campus-crime disclosures and safety policies. Those statistics cover specified reporting periods and locations; they cannot, by themselves, predict an individual's experience. Applicants with particular accessibility, transportation, or late-night scheduling concerns should ask about the procedures relevant to their circumstances rather than assuming an escort or other service is available.
