What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Texas Tech University?
Texas Tech has a campus police department and uses emergency communications and reporting procedures for incidents affecting the university. Reported campus measures include around-the-clock security patrols, emergency telephone or alarm devices, electronically controlled residence-hall entrances, and late-night transportation or escort options.
Students should learn how to receive official emergency alerts, where to report a concern, and what services operate at the time and place they need them; availability of a ride or escort can depend on current schedules and service boundaries. In an immediate emergency, call 911. The university also publishes an annual security report under federal campus-crime reporting rules and maintains processes for reporting sexual misconduct and accessing support. Those reports describe specified incidents and locations for stated years, not a complete measure of any person's risk.
