Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

While no campus is perfectly safe, BYU is pretty close. Without the problems brought on by alcohol and drugs,
crime stats stay remarkably low. Granted, a laptop computer left unattended in a hallway may not be there when you get back, but with a little common sense, you can easily go through your BYU career without any major problems (security-wise, at least).

Few campuses in America can boast the safety that BYU does. The Safewalk program is well designed and set up to make sure that students get home from campus safely late at night. BYU also regularly runs awareness programs on everything from water usage to driving safety. The dorms on campus automatically lock at 11 p.m., after which only residents can enter. Fellow students are friendly and look out for one another. It’s the BYU way.

Totally Safe

I feel very safe on campus. The pathways leading from campus are well lit. I have never felt unsafe on campus. I've never been robbed or pranked.

BYU Security Is Bored

Since there is an honor code kids do not often cause much trouble. In addition it is very rare that anything dangerous happens on campus. The most dangerous thing is crossing the street when the light says stop.

Police Force Out to Get You

The cops here are out to get you. Don't party or you'll spend time in jail waiting to get processed, which takes forever. Despite being interested in busting parties, they do very little to make the school safe otherwise.
