Campus Safety Tips
When you go out, keep these safety tips in mind:
- Take the safest route to and from campus, not the fastest route.
- Travel in groups of two or more at night, and always walk in well-lit, heavily traveled areas. If you do not have someone to walk with you, please contact the Public Safety Department for an escort by calling (505) 566-4444 or 4444 from any campus phone.
- Stay on the part of the sidewalk that is farthest away from shrubs, dark doorways, and alleys.
- Share your class schedule only with those who need to know it (family, close friends, etc.)
- Never share your schedule with anyone you do not know.
- When you go out, let someone know where you are going and when you plan to be back.
- Wherever you are, stay alert to your surroundings and the actions of people around you.
- Follow your instincts. If something doesn’t feel right, change directions, go to a public building and call the Public Safety Department.
- Do not leave your belongings unattended, even for a few minutes.
- Avoid displaying large amounts of cash or other tempting targets such as jewelry or expensive equipment.
- Always lock your car and keep valuables out of sight. Check the back seat before getting in.
- Park in well-lit, well-traveled areas of the parking lot.
