Southwestern students should use the school's published campus-safety procedures for emergencies, incident reporting and misconduct concerns. A campus safety policy is more informative than an unsupported claim that an urban campus is categorically safe or unsafe.
Federal Clery Act disclosures are a useful place to examine the school's reported crime statistics, reporting policies and emergency procedures. Those statistics cover defined locations and reporting periods; they do not capture every incident in the surrounding neighborhood. Applicants with specific needs should check current instructions for emergency notifications, after-hours building access and reporting sexual misconduct, as well as transportation options for evening classes.
