What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at University of Akron Main Campus?

The University of Akron has campus police and emergency-response resources. Reported measures include around-the-clock patrols, emergency telephone or alarm devices, electronically controlled residence-hall entrances and a late-night transport or escort option.

Students should learn how to contact University of Akron Police, receive campus emergency notifications and report an incident. The university's published emergency procedures and annual security report are the appropriate places to check current reporting channels and Clery Act crime figures. Sexual misconduct reports and support needs may involve separate Title IX and confidential-resource pathways; students should distinguish a request for help from a formal complaint and check the current options before sharing sensitive information.
