What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Winston-Salem State University?
WSSU has campus police and public-safety services, including reported around-the-clock security patrols and emergency telephone or alarm devices. Students should learn the university's current emergency-notification and reporting procedures when they enroll, rather than relying on an ordinary office contact during an urgent incident.
The university's annual security report is the appropriate place to examine its published crime statistics, reporting categories and emergency policies. Those statistics cover defined locations and reporting periods; they cannot, by themselves, establish how safe an individual will feel or be. Students seeking help with sexual misconduct should also review WSSU's Title IX reporting and support information, which addresses a different process from an immediate emergency response.
