What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Gardner-Webb University?

Gardner-Webb reports around-the-clock patrols by trained security personnel, emergency telephone or alarm devices, controlled residence-hall entrances, and a late-night transport or escort service. Students should learn how to request those services and receive emergency alerts before they need them.

Campus safety information should also include procedures for reporting emergencies and sexual misconduct, accessing confidential or other support where available, and reviewing the university's annual security report. That report is the appropriate place to examine federally required campus-crime disclosures and their reporting periods. Crime counts alone cannot describe every risk a student may encounter, and the availability of a safety measure is not a guarantee of personal safety.
