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

Simmons provides campus public-safety resources, including around-the-clock security patrols and emergency telephone or alarm devices. Reported measures also include electronically controlled residence-hall entrances and a late-night escort or transportation service.

Students should learn how to reach public safety, receive emergency notifications, and report an incident soon after arriving. Those considering campus housing should review residence-access rules; all students should locate the university's emergency procedures and sexual-misconduct reporting and support information. Simmons' annual security report is the appropriate source for federally reported campus crime figures, but those figures alone cannot describe every aspect of personal safety.
