Widener reports around-the-clock security patrols and emergency telephone or alarm devices. Reported measures also include electronically controlled residence-hall entrances and a late-night transport or escort service.

Sexual misconduct reports and requests for supportive measures have procedures separate from an ordinary facilities or security report. The university's annual security report is the appropriate place to review its published crime disclosures and safety policies; reported incidents cover defined categories and locations and cannot, by themselves, describe every individual's risk.
