What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at The College of New Jersey?

TCNJ reports around-the-clock security patrols and emergency telephone or alarm devices, as well as late-night escort or transportation services and electronically controlled residence-hall entrances. These measures are resources and procedures, not a guarantee against crime.

Students should learn how to reach campus police or public safety, receive emergency notifications, and request an escort before one is needed. For questions about reported incidents and response procedures, the college's annual security report is the appropriate source; its statistics cover defined locations, offense categories, and reporting periods rather than every safety concern a student might encounter. Students seeking help after sexual misconduct should also review the college's current reporting and confidential-support options, since those routes serve different purposes.
