What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Oberlin College?
Oberlin provides 24-hour campus safety coverage, emergency communication resources, and access-controlled residence hall entrances. Reported services also include emergency telephones or alarms and late-night transportation or escort assistance.
Students should learn how to contact Campus Safety, register for emergency notifications, and report an urgent concern when they arrive. Sexual misconduct concerns can also be reported through the college's Title IX processes, which are distinct from requesting confidential counseling or medical support. Oberlin publishes an annual security report under federal campus-safety rules; its crime tables cover defined locations and reporting periods, so they should be read alongside the report's explanations rather than treated as a complete measure of personal safety.
