LSU maintains campus policing and emergency-response resources. Reported measures include around-the-clock security patrols, emergency telephone or alarm devices, electronically controlled residence-hall entrances, and a late-night transportation or escort option.
Students should learn how to receive LSU emergency alerts, report an incident, and reach help from their particular location; procedures for an immediate emergency differ from those for a nonemergency report. The university also publishes an annual security report under federal campus-safety rules. That report is the appropriate source for reviewing defined categories of reported crime and the policies behind the statistics, but its figures cannot capture every aspect of personal safety. Sexual misconduct reporting and support options should be checked through LSU's current Title IX and student-support resources.
