Mississippi State University

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

Mississippi State has campus policing and emergency-response resources, including around-the-clock patrols and emergency telephone or alarm devices. Reported residential measures include electronically controlled residence-hall entrances, and a late-night transportation or escort service is listed among available services.

Students should learn the university's current emergency-notification and reporting procedures when they enroll, including how to reach campus police and request an escort. The university's annual security report is the appropriate place to examine reported campus crime statistics and policy details; those figures cover defined locations and reporting periods and cannot, on their own, describe every aspect of personal safety. Students seeking help with sexual misconduct can also use the university's reporting and support channels, including its Title IX resources.
