What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Youngstown State University?

Youngstown State University has campus safety personnel and emergency-response resources. Reported measures include around-the-clock security patrols, emergency telephone or alarm devices, late-night escort or transportation service, and electronically controlled residence-hall entrances.

Students should learn how to contact campus police or public safety, enroll in available emergency notifications, and find the procedures for reporting a concern or requesting assistance after hours. Support and reporting routes for sexual misconduct should be checked separately from ordinary crime-reporting procedures. YSU's annual security report is the appropriate source for federally reported campus crime statistics and safety policies; those statistics cover defined locations and reporting periods and do not, by themselves, describe every individual's experience.
