What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Governors State University?
Governors State reports round-the-clock security patrols and emergency telephone or alarm devices, as well as a late-night escort or transportation service. Its student housing uses electronically controlled entrances.
Students should learn the current emergency-notification and reporting procedures through the university's public safety resources. For an immediate emergency, call 911. The university's annual security report is the appropriate source for federally reported campus crime statistics and explains reporting categories, policies, and support procedures; those statistics should be read with their reporting period and definitions in mind. Students seeking help with sexual misconduct should use the university's current Title IX reporting and support information.
