Westmont College

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

Westmont reports around-the-clock patrols by trained security personnel, emergency telephone or alarm devices, a late-night transport or escort service, and electronically operated residence-hall entrances. These are campus resources, not assurances that an incident cannot occur.

Students should learn how to contact campus public safety, receive emergency notifications and report an immediate threat. The college's published emergency procedures and annual security report are the appropriate sources for current contacts, reporting instructions and federally required crime disclosures. Crime figures, if consulted, should be read with their reporting years and geographic definitions in mind rather than treated as a complete measure of personal risk.

For sexual misconduct concerns, students should also identify Westmont's current Title IX reporting channels and available support options. Reporting to a campus office, requesting supportive measures and making a law-enforcement report can involve different processes.
