Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Students tend to express varying opinions about the safety
of Trinity’s campus. In general, however, students agree
on the basic facts: we are in the center of a large urban
area; there is crime; the muggings that occur each year
usually happen to naïve freshman walking alone at night. Don’t walk alone at night. This is an unwritten rule in most urban areas, though.

Trinity definitely tries to control the crime on campus. While we’re an open campus, meaning that anyone can walk through at any time, ID cards are needed to open all student dormitories and facilities. Call boxes are located all over campus (over fifty in all) to alert campus safety to any problems quickly. Hartford police cars can often be seen parked in the darker areas of campus. However, there was a stabbing last year when a student stepped out of his dorm for a 3 a.m. cigarette, and there have been several reports of muggings at gunpoint over the past few years. However, if you use common sense, and use the shuttle instead of walking alone at night, chances are, you will usually feel safe, despite the isolated incidents of crime on campus.

Safe

It is pretty safe on campus. We have our own campus police and shuttle that drives around the school and gives us rides. Although the neighboring community is sometimes hostile, I don't feel unsafe.
