SUNY Polytechnic Institute

What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at SUNY Polytechnic Institute?

SUNY Poly reports round-the-clock security patrols, emergency telephone or alarm devices, electronically controlled residence-hall entrances, and late-night escort or transportation assistance. Students should learn the current procedure for requesting help and receiving emergency alerts when they arrive on campus.

For an immediate emergency, students should use emergency services or the campus's published emergency contact procedure. Other concerns may belong with campus public safety, residence-life staff, or the office responsible for sexual-misconduct reporting and support. The university's annual security report is the appropriate place to review its published crime statistics, reporting policies, and emergency procedures.

These measures describe available systems; they do not establish that a campus is categorically safe or unsafe. Prospective residents may also want to check building-access practices and how escort services operate at the times they expect to use them.
