What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Pennsylvania State University-Penn State Erie-Behrend College?

Penn State Behrend provides campus safety services, including around-the-clock security patrols and emergency reporting resources. Reported campus measures also include emergency phones or alarms, electronically controlled residence entrances, and a late-night escort or transportation service.

Students should enroll in Penn State's emergency notification system and learn the campus procedures for reporting an immediate threat, a nonemergency concern, or sexual misconduct. Penn State's published policies identify reporting channels and support options; its annual security report provides federally required crime disclosures and information about safety procedures.

Reported incidents should be read with their location definitions and reporting years in mind. A crime table alone cannot establish how safe an individual will feel or account for every incident a student might encounter.
