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

Salem University reports around-the-clock patrols by trained security personnel and 24-hour emergency telephone or alarm devices. Those measures are useful to know about, but they do not remove the need to understand how to report an incident or receive an emergency alert.

Students should locate the university's current emergency contact instructions, notification procedures, and annual security report when they enroll. The annual report is the appropriate source for campus crime statistics and their reporting periods; such statistics cover defined locations and reported incidents, not every experience of personal safety. Students should also identify the university's current process for reporting sexual misconduct and obtaining confidential or other support, as those routes may serve different purposes.
