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

Morgan State has campus public-safety personnel and reported 24-hour patrols, emergency telephone or alarm devices, late-night escort or transportation service, and electronically controlled residence-hall entrances. Students should learn how to request each service, since availability and operating procedures may differ.

The university's emergency-notification and reporting instructions are particularly important for commuters and residents alike. Students should locate the current campus police contact information, sign up for applicable alerts, and review procedures for reporting a crime, a safety concern, or sexual misconduct. The university's annual security report is the appropriate place to examine federally reported campus crime statistics and prevention policies; such figures describe reported incidents under specified rules and do not measure every risk a person might encounter.
