safety and security

Whether your child is moving on campus from your home down the street or moving across the country, it is never easy. Understandably, as a parent safety is one of your top concerns. It is ours too. That's why we partner with your children to make wise choices. We also employ a team of professionals who provide 24-hour security in the residence halls, as well as by foot, bike, Segway and auto. To learn more about crime prevention and to view reports, visit our Safety & Security website

We want your child to feel safe and at home on our beautiful campus surrounded by a quiet residential neighborhood. That is why we provide the following services:

  • 24 hours a day security officer can be reached by dialing extension x2999 while on campus
  • Individuals who are locked out of vehicles or buildings can call safety and security for assistance
  • A 24-hour escort service is available to anyone who feels unsafe walking on campus.
  • Shuttle service to local SEPTA stations
  • Safety and security personnel encourage everyone on campus to call if assistance is needed, no matter what the circumstance.
