University at Buffalo

What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at University at Buffalo?

UB has a university police department and campus emergency-response resources. Reported measures include around-the-clock security patrols, emergency telephone or alarm devices, controlled residence-hall entrances and late-night transportation or escort options.

Students can use UB's emergency notification system for alerts and should learn the reporting procedures for the campus where they spend time. Sexual misconduct reporting and support involve distinct processes, including confidential support options and formal reports; students seeking help should identify which office provides which kind of assistance. UB publishes an annual security report under federal campus-safety requirements. Its crime tables cover specified locations and reporting periods, so they should not be read as a complete measure of every student's personal safety.
