University of South Alabama

What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at University of South Alabama?

South Alabama has a university police department responsible for campus law-enforcement and emergency response functions. The university also uses emergency communications to notify its community about urgent situations.

Students should learn how to report an emergency, enroll or confirm their contact details for campus alerts, and locate current emergency procedures. Sexual misconduct can be reported through the university's Title IX processes, which are distinct from - and may operate alongside - a police report. The institution's annual security report is the appropriate place to review its published crime statistics, reporting categories and safety policies. Such statistics have defined reporting rules and periods and cannot, on their own, establish how safe an individual student will feel or be.
