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

Montclair State has campus public-safety services and emergency-response procedures. Reported physical measures include around-the-clock emergency telephone or alarm devices and electronically controlled residence-hall entrances.

Students should learn how to receive university emergency notifications, where to report a concern, and what procedures apply during an urgent incident. The university's annual security report is the appropriate source for federally required campus-crime disclosures and related policies; reported incidents should be read with their locations and reporting periods in mind, rather than treated as a complete measure of personal safety.

Sexual misconduct reports and requests for support may involve campus reporting channels and confidential resources with different responsibilities. Students who want to understand privacy, supportive measures, or how a formal report works should review the university's current Title IX and campus-safety guidance.
