Rush University

What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Rush University?

Rush University reports around-the-clock security patrols and emergency telephone or alarm devices, as well as a late-night transport or escort service. Those resources are relevant on a medical-district campus where students may have evening classes, study hours or clinical schedules.

Students should learn the current emergency contact procedure, how to request an escort, and how Rush communicates urgent alerts. Reports of sexual misconduct should be directed through the university's Title IX procedures; immediate threats require emergency assistance. The university's annual security report is the appropriate place to review its current policies and federally reported campus crime figures. Such figures cover defined locations and reporting periods and should not be treated as a complete measure of an individual's safety.
