Franklin and Marshall College

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

Franklin & Marshall reports round-the-clock patrol by trained security personnel, emergency telephone or alarm devices, late-night escort or transportation service, and electronically controlled residence-hall entrances. These are resources and procedures, not a guarantee against crime or emergencies.

Students should learn how to contact campus public safety, receive emergency notifications, request an escort, and report an incident. The college's annual security report is the appropriate source for federally required crime disclosures and descriptions of reporting procedures; its statistics cover specified locations and reporting periods rather than every incident affecting a student. Students seeking help after sexual misconduct should also review the college's current reporting options, supportive measures, and confidential resources so they understand the difference between requesting support and initiating a formal report.
