Campus safety at Purchase College involves SUNY's university police services, emergency communications, and established processes for reporting incidents. Students should know how to contact police in an emergency and how to receive the college's current emergency alerts.
Purchase's published emergency procedures and annual security report are the appropriate sources for current reporting instructions, campus crime disclosures, and safety policies. Students should also identify the college's channels for reporting sexual misconduct and obtaining confidential or other support, since reporting to police, filing a conduct complaint, and seeking care can be different actions. Crime statistics describe incidents reported under specific rules and periods; they are not a complete measure of an individual's safety.
