Lewis & Clark is one of the safest campuses in what is consistently ranked one of America’s safest cities. Students at LC hardly ever question their safety, and most feel comfortable walking around campus in the wee hours of the night. Campus Security, or "Campo" as the students lovingly refer to them as, are on duty 24/7, and are always on call. Students are given a card with all emergency contact information at the beginning of the year, and this is handy should a student ever need it. You hear about the occasional theft, but it’s hardly ever more than somebody stealing someone else’s food out of the community refrigerator. The chances of abduction or rape are relatively nonexistent, but in such a case, there are always officers to call.
The worst thing that Campo usually has to deal with is the underage drinking and marijuana on campus. On the whole, Campo doesn’t sniff around searching for trouble, but they respond to calls they are getting, which are usually from RAs. The general consensus on campus is that Campus Security isn’t too strict, but you have to be willing to reason with them.

Not Too Bad
The Campus Security is not necessarily strict or lenient. If you are smart about what you are involved in you won't get in trouble. If you get "written up" by a resident advisor or by campus security you simply have to attend a meeting about it.

Totally Relaxed
I wouldn't be surprised if Campus Safety joined students in their rule breaking endeavors. But seriously, rules are enforced enough to create a safe environment, but there isn't someone breathing down your neck.

HAHA
Very funny that I am given this. No not strict at all, stay smart though. And we found if you're carrying a video camera and saying we're doing this for a class and pretend to film, campo will let you do just about anything ;)

There are relatively no visitation policies. If students want to inform the RA that they are having a friend stay in their room overnight, they can, but it isn't essential.

College Prowler guides are in the hands of students throughout the entire process. Because you can't make student-written guides without the students, we have students at each campus who write, edit, and survey their peers for every guide that we publish.
