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

Southern Adventist University's campus safety information should be evaluated through its current emergency procedures and annual security report, rather than through a general claim that a campus is safe or unsafe. The annual report is the place to check federally required disclosures about reported offenses, reporting procedures, and institutional safety policies.

Students should save the current campus emergency contact information, learn how emergency alerts are delivered, and review instructions for reporting a threat or requesting help. The university's published procedures for sexual misconduct and supportive measures are also important resources. Crime-report totals, if consulted, cover defined locations and reporting years; they cannot capture every incident or predict an individual's experience.
