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

Knox reports around-the-clock patrols by trained security personnel, emergency telephone or alarm devices, and a late-night transport or escort service. Those resources are relevant to daily planning, but their availability should not be read as a guarantee against crime.

Students should learn how to contact campus safety, receive emergency alerts, and request an escort before they need those services. They should also review the college's current reporting and support procedures for sexual misconduct and other incidents, including options for immediate assistance and confidential support where offered.

Knox's annual security report is the appropriate source for federally reported campus crime statistics and related safety policies. Any figures in that report should be read with their reporting years and location definitions; they do not capture every experience that may affect a person's sense of safety.
