What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Washington College?

Washington College reports around-the-clock security patrols and emergency telephone or alarm devices. Its reported measures also include electronically controlled residence-hall entrances and a late-night escort or transportation service.

Students should learn how to contact campus public safety, receive emergency alerts, and report a concerning incident. The college's emergency procedures and annual security report are the appropriate places to check current reporting channels, crime disclosures, and response policies. Students seeking help after sexual misconduct should also identify the college's Title IX reporting and support options, including which resources can discuss concerns confidentially.

No individual measure establishes that a campus is free from risk. When comparing crime disclosures, readers should note the reporting years and definitions; reported incidents do not capture every experience or, on their own, provide a complete measure of personal safety.
