What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at The University of Tennessee-Chattanooga?

UTC maintains campus police and emergency-response resources. Reported measures include around-the-clock security patrols, emergency telephone or alarm devices, and a late-night transport or escort service.

Students should enroll in the university's emergency-notification system and learn how to contact UTC Police, report a concern, and obtain help after hours. UTC also publishes emergency procedures and an annual security report; that report is the appropriate place to examine federally required campus-crime disclosures and their reporting definitions. Crime counts, if consulted, cover defined locations and periods rather than every incident a student might experience.

For sexual misconduct or harassment concerns, students can use UTC's designated reporting and support channels. A student seeking help should distinguish confidential support from a formal report, since different offices may have different obligations to share information.
