What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at School of the Art Institute of Chicago?

SAIC reports around-the-clock security patrols and emergency alarm or telephone devices, as well as controlled residence-hall entrances and a late-night escort or transportation service. These are resources students can use; their existence does not eliminate the ordinary risks of an urban campus.

Students should learn how to contact Campus Security, sign up for the school's emergency notifications, and locate the procedures for reporting an incident. SAIC's published annual security report is the appropriate source for its Clery Act crime statistics and reporting policies. Students seeking help with sexual misconduct should review the school's Title IX reporting and support options, including how to request supportive measures whether or not they pursue a formal complaint.
