Eastern Illinois University provides campus security measures that include around-the-clock patrols by trained personnel, emergency telephone or alarm devices, and electronically controlled residence-hall entrances. These measures are resources and precautions, not a guarantee against crime.
Students should learn how to contact university police, receive emergency notifications and report an incident when they arrive. The university's emergency procedures and annual security report are the appropriate places to check reporting options, recent federally reported campus crime figures and instructions for specific situations. Students seeking help after sexual misconduct should distinguish an emergency report from requests for medical care, confidential support or a formal university complaint, because those routes can involve different offices and privacy rules.
