New Mexico Highlands University reports round-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 request these services and receive campus emergency notifications at the start of each term.
For a fuller picture of safety procedures, prospective students can review the university's annual security report, which describes reporting options, policies, and federally defined crime statistics for specified locations and years. Those statistics should be read with their geographic and reporting limits in mind. Students should also identify the current channels for reporting sexual misconduct and obtaining confidential support; an emergency should be reported through the appropriate emergency service rather than a routine administrative form.
