Health & Safety
We had a small incident earlier this year at the Claremont Colleges in which a drunk male junior from Pitzer College entered the unlocked dorms of two Scripps College students and stood above them on their beds half-naked as they slept. However, the culprit was caught and was handed over to the law. If you lock your doors (duh!!) then there shouldn't be any problems.
I, as a female freshman, feel very safe on campus, even walking alone at decent hours of the night. Upon arrival, we were given whistles to attach to our lanyards to use in case of an emergency. There is a $100 fine if it is needlessly blown, so Campus Security takes it very seriously if they hear one. This wonderful group of men and women patrol the campuses at night in golf carts and are just a phone call away (from your personal cell phone or one of the emergency blue light phones we have around campus) from picking you up all the way on the north end of Claremont McKenna and driving you back to your dorm on the south end of Pomona at any time of the night in case you don't feel safe walking that far alone or if it's just too cold. The campus security member who picked me up was very friendly and not awkward at all.
