What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Prairie View A & M University?

Prairie View A&M maintains campus public-safety services and emergency procedures. Reported measures include around-the-clock security patrols and emergency alarm or telephone devices, as well as a late-night transport or escort service and electronically controlled residence entrances.

Students should learn how to contact campus police, sign up for official emergency notifications, and report a concern before an incident occurs. Sexual misconduct reporting and support involve procedures distinct from routine police calls; students seeking assistance should consult the university's current Title IX and support resources. The annual security report is the appropriate source for federally reported campus crime statistics and reporting policies. Its figures cover defined locations and time periods, not every incident a student might experience nearby.
