What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Salem State University?
Salem State maintains campus public-safety services, including round-the-clock security patrols and emergency telephone or alarm devices. Reported measures also include late-night transport or escort assistance and electronically controlled residence-hall entrances.
Students should learn how to receive university emergency notifications, report an urgent incident and request an escort before they need those services. Sexual misconduct can be reported through the university's designated processes, with support options distinct from a criminal report. For a more specific view of reported incidents and safety policies, the university's annual security report is the appropriate source; reported crime counts alone cannot describe every person's experience of safety.
