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

Sul Ross has campus security resources that include trained personnel on patrol, controlled entrances to residence halls, and a reported late-night transport or escort service. Students should learn the current request procedure and operating hours for any escort service rather than assume it is available for every trip.

The university's public safety and emergency information should explain how to report an incident, receive emergency alerts, and obtain help after hours. Its annual security report is the appropriate source for federally reported campus crime figures and safety policies; those figures cover defined locations and reporting periods, not every incident a student might encounter. Students seeking help with sexual misconduct should use the university's current Title IX reporting and support procedures, which serve a different purpose from an emergency police call.
