Ohio University Lancaster reports 24-hour emergency telephone or alarm devices. Students should also learn Ohio University's emergency-notification procedures, how to report an incident, and whom to contact for urgent help at their specific class location.
University reporting and support processes cover matters such as misconduct and sexual harassment, but the applicable contact may depend on whether an incident occurs in Lancaster, at another university site, or elsewhere. The university's annual security disclosures are the appropriate place to examine reported campus crime figures and the geographic boundaries used to compile them. A reported count alone cannot establish how safe an individual will feel or be.
