crime. Secure your valuables, keep residence hall doors locked, be
aware of your environment.
Record the description of suspicious persons. Do not
attempt to question or restrain them yourself.
Escape is the primary objective if you become involved
in a dangerous situation. Do not attempt a physical confrontation if
escape is possible.
Value your safety and the safety of others.
