What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Mercer University?
Mercer provides campus public-safety services that include around-the-clock security patrols, emergency telephone or alarm devices, late-night escort or transportation services, and electronically controlled residence-hall entrances. Access and procedures can vary by location and building.
Students should learn how to report an emergency, receive campus alerts, request an escort, and report sexual misconduct or other concerns through the applicable university office. Mercer's annual security report is the appropriate source for federally reported campus crime statistics and related policies. Those statistics cover defined locations and reporting periods; they are useful context but cannot describe every student's experience or establish that a campus is categorically safe or unsafe.
