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

Lipscomb reports around-the-clock patrols by trained security personnel, emergency telephone or alarm devices, late-night escort or transportation services, and electronically controlled residence-hall entrances. These measures describe available resources, not a guarantee against crime.

Students should learn how to contact campus security, receive emergency alerts and report an incident, including sexual misconduct, when they arrive. The university's annual security report is the appropriate place to review its current reporting procedures and federally reported campus-crime statistics. Those statistics cover defined locations and reporting periods; they are not a complete measure of every student's personal risk.
