A Little to Safe

I gave stetson a 'A' only because the "p-safety" is always on the prowl for giving people 70+ dollar parking tickets for being in the wrong parking place. They will give you one even if the "teachers" lot is mostly empty and the only parking place you can park in is full. Leave your car in the wrong place for more than 1 hour and you will get a ticket.

Great Safety

very safe on stetson campus. they have emergency phones at every corner. security would always be available and around.

Safe Inside Stetson Community

I've never felt unsafe at Stetson even while walking alone at night--which only happened once & it was because I was heavily intoxicated. However, I don't recommend doing that (walking alone at night), considering Stetson is an open campus and there are some locals that like to walk through Stetson. Outside of this little bubble, Deland is very poor and there's a lot of crime going on. Public Safety is available & I always had them in my phone ready to dial whenever I wanted a ride from my friend's dorm back to mine, vice versa. P-safe will NOT give rides in the middle of the day unless you're injured. I found this out one time when it was raining HEAVILY & of course I forgot my umbrella, had my laptop in my purse & was wearing the business clothes I would wear to my interview that evening. If I walked to my dorm I would be soaked by the time I went inside plus my laptop would be damaged. P-safe denied giving me a ride. Kinda stupid if you ask me.
