There are over 140 blue light security phones located throughout the campus.<\/p>\n
These phones are connected directly to Campus Safety – no dialing is required. The Security Phone System is monitored by a Communications Officer at all hours and is activated when the large red button in the center of the phone is pushed.<\/strong> If a phone is activated and the Communications Officer does not receive a response from the caller, an officer is immediately dispatched to that location.\u00a0 Security phones may be used to contact Campus Safety for any reason, such as to call for a safety ride or escort, reporting an unwelcome interaction, contacting Campus Safety for support, or to report an emergency.<\/p>\n Communications Officers can contact the appropriate emergency personnel, whether it is Campus Safety, police, fire, or medical personnel, and direct them to your location. Each security phone has a blue light above it which is clearly visible at night. Students should become familiar with the locations of the blue light security phones and their operation.<\/p>\n
