What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Lenoir-Rhyne University?

Lenoir-Rhyne reports around-the-clock security patrols and emergency telephone or alarm devices. Its reported safety provisions also include electronic residence-hall entrances and a late-night transport or escort service.

Students should learn how to request an escort, report an incident and receive emergency alerts when they arrive; procedures may differ between Hickory and other instructional locations. The university's annual security report is the appropriate source for its disclosed campus-crime statistics and reporting policies. Students seeking help with sexual misconduct should use the institution's current reporting and support procedures. Neither a list of safety measures nor a crime-statistics table can establish that a campus is entirely safe or unsafe.
