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

Savannah State University provides campus public-safety services, including trained security patrols and emergency-response resources. Reported campus measures include emergency telephone or alarm devices, electronically controlled residence-hall entrances, and a late-night escort or transportation service.

Students should learn how to reach campus police or public safety, receive emergency notifications, and request an escort before they need those services. The university's annual security report is the appropriate source for federally required campus-crime statistics and reporting procedures. Those statistics cover defined incidents and locations; they are not a complete measure of any individual's personal safety. Students seeking help with sexual misconduct should also review the university's Title IX reporting and support procedures.
