What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Western Washington University?
Western Washington University maintains campus public-safety services, emergency reporting procedures and an emergency notification system. Reported campus measures include around-the-clock patrols, emergency phones or alarms, electronically controlled residence-hall entrances, and a late-night escort or transportation service.
Students should learn how to receive Western's emergency alerts, report an urgent incident and obtain a late-night escort before they need those services. Reports involving sexual misconduct have separate reporting and support pathways, including the university's Title IX process. Western's annual security report is the appropriate source for definitions and reporting periods if an applicant wants to examine campus crime statistics; those statistics alone cannot describe every aspect of personal safety.
