What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at University of Wisconsin-River Falls?

UWRF provides campus security measures that include around-the-clock patrols, emergency telephone or alarm devices, controlled residence-hall entrances, and a late-night escort or transportation option. Students should learn how to request help and receive emergency notifications before they need those services.

The university's public safety procedures and annual security report are the appropriate places to check current reporting contacts, emergency instructions, and federally reported campus crime statistics. Such statistics cover defined locations and reporting periods; they cannot, on their own, describe every circumstance a student may encounter. Students seeking help after sexual misconduct should use the university's current reporting and confidential-support information to distinguish a formal report from a request for private assistance.
