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

Mississippi University for Women reports around-the-clock patrols by trained security personnel, emergency telephone or alarm devices, late-night escort or transport service, and electronically controlled residence-hall entrances. Students should learn how to reach campus public safety, receive emergency alerts, and report an incident before they need those services.

The university's annual security report is the appropriate place to review its published crime-reporting procedures, emergency policies, and federally required campus crime statistics. Those statistics cover defined locations and reporting periods; they are not a complete measure of every student's personal risk. Students seeking support after sexual misconduct should consult the university's current reporting and confidential-support information so they understand which offices can receive a formal report and which services offer privacy.
