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

Duquesne provides round-the-clock security patrols, emergency telephone or alarm devices, controlled residence-hall entrances and a late-night escort or transportation option. Students should learn how to reach campus public safety and receive emergency alerts as part of their arrival planning.

The university's public safety and emergency-management materials are the appropriate sources for current reporting procedures and response instructions. Students seeking help with sexual misconduct should also review the university's Title IX reporting options and confidential support resources, which serve different purposes. Duquesne's annual security report provides federally required crime disclosures and policy information; reported incidents should be read with their location and reporting-period definitions in mind rather than treated as a complete measure of personal safety.
