What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Lake Superior State University?

Lake Superior State University reports around-the-clock patrols by trained security personnel, emergency telephone or alarm devices, a late-night escort or transportation service, and electronically controlled residence-hall entrances. Students should review the current campus public safety instructions to learn how to request help and receive emergency notifications.

Campus safety also includes knowing how to report sexual misconduct, obtain confidential or other support, and respond to weather-related emergencies. The university's annual security report is the appropriate place to examine federally required crime disclosures and safety policies. Reported incidents cover specified categories and locations; they are not a complete measure of every student's personal risk.
