What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Lander University?

Lander University provides campus security services that include around-the-clock patrols by trained personnel, emergency telephone or alarm devices, and a late-night escort or transportation option. Reported residence-hall security measures include electronically operated entrances.

Students should learn how to receive campus emergency alerts and how to contact campus police or public safety, rather than relying only on ordinary university email. Reports involving sexual misconduct can also be directed through the university's Title IX procedures, which are distinct from an emergency police response.

The university's annual security report is the appropriate place to review federally reported campus-crime statistics, reporting locations, and safety policies. Such figures cover defined incidents and geography; they cannot, by themselves, establish how safe any individual will feel or be on campus.
