Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Temple University is one of the safest places in Philadelphia. Temple police, city police, and security guards have been working around the clock to keep both Temple and the surrounding community safe. Security guards are posted at the front door of every residence hall and academic building, so if you are not a Temple student or staff member, you are not given access to the building.

If the police don't make you feel safe, then Temple has other safety features, such as the stadium lighting all around campus and the blue-light emergency call-boxes with a reaction time of 60 seconds. In addition to these features, the University also has something on campus that a lot of people call “Temple’s Big Brother"—the more than 200 cameras all over campus (even on top of buildings). So don't do anything on campus that you wouldn’t want recorded. In addition to security services, Temple University has one of the best health service centers for students in the city. Health services fees are included in your tuition, so if you're sick, do not hesitate to stop in and get checked out.

Temple Campus Cops

Temple Police cop are very convenient. They are willing to help student feel safe on campus nonetheless, make them feel comfortable. Temple police just keep an eye on every student and see that they are doing okay and well. If anything ever happen and a student reports that another student that is in danger they will come to the rescue.

Health and Safety

Temple University has great security and health on campus. If a person is sick on campus they can go to the health facilities. Also, if someone has a contagious disease, they will be treated or taken t the hospital, but also, the students will receive an e-mail to let them know. The safety on campus is also very good. There are police constantly riding around on their bikes or walking around. There are also the blue safety poles that if something was wrong a person could just press the button on the pole and police will be there within 30 seconds. There are also security guards in every building and along with cameras.
