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

Florida Poly reports around-the-clock security patrols, emergency telephone or alarm devices, and electronically controlled residence-hall entrances. Students should also learn how the university issues emergency alerts and where to report an immediate concern.

The university's public-safety procedures and annual security report are the appropriate places to check emergency contacts, reported Clery Act crime statistics and campus response policies. Those statistics describe specified reported incidents within defined locations and years; they are not a complete measure of every student's personal risk. For sexual misconduct or discrimination concerns, students should identify the university's current Title IX reporting and support channels as well as emergency services when immediate help is needed.
