Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Most students feel safe on campus due to the high patrol of Public Safety and the few minor crime reports and just because of the laid-back campus ISU has. Pocatello is generally a conservative town with a low crime rate. Most crime reports are related to parking issues or fender benders. There really are not a lot of problems on the ISU campus. Every now and then, a report comes out about some stolen computers, but there is not a lot to for students to be concerned about. It is impossible to walk to class without seeing a Public Safety officer on patrol. Public Safety also offers numerous self-defense classes, especially for women. The scariest part for any ISU student would probably be the off-campus alleys. There have been reports of peeping Toms and stalkers, so women especially would be wise to walk with somebody at night, lock house and car doors, and be aware of what is going on around you when walking in alleys or streets at night. While Pocatello is a safe town, that does not mean students do not need to watch out for themselves and know what to do if something were to happen.

B Is for Safe Enough

I don't feel very threatened on campus even in the dark, or late at night. Public safety is usually around early in the morning and late in the evening when most people are threatened, i guess. I do have to worry about other people stealing my personal items. It hasn't happened yet, but it was a rather large concern for everyone on campus. There were no cases of rape or date rape or party drugs in drinks. There are a few creepers every once in a while, but they are just creepy not rapey.

Campus Safety

Idaho state university in Idaho Falls is very safe. I always lock my car doors backside I don't see many transportation safety around but I've never had a problem with vandalism or burglary. The campus has a really nice feel. There could be more space to park... But I'm really enjoying it
