Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

USF Public Safety has an important influence on campus life. While some incidents are unavoidable and inevitable, Public Safety does its very best to give the campus and its students a safe, secure environment. Officers patrol the campus 24 hours a day. The campus shuttle and safety escorts are available to bring students to and from main campus, Loyola Village, Pedro Arrupe, and practically any other place within the vicinity of campus.

Thefts and robberies on campus and in the dorms have been met with a quick response due to the emergency poles strategically placed around campus and the fast action that results from calling the 24-hour safety line. Also, whenever anything happens on campus, the word is spread almost instantaneously through the USF Connect e-mail system. Keeping everyone aware of campus security breaches is one way Public Safety maintains safety. Another is through required ID checks at the entrances of every residence hall, although sometimes people (and their alcohol) sneak by because the checks are conducted by students. If anyone is caught drinking underage in the dorms, RAs will write a referral, but if a student is caught with drugs, Public Safety officers come immediately to handle the situation.

Campus Security

I almost always see campus security walking around, especially at night. You can even call them to give you a lift from Lone Mountain to your dorms if you do not feel safe walking, or if you have any trouble in general.

Small Campus

It's a small campus, so I feel safe overall. I also see cops around campus. Since USF is in the middle of a neighborhood, it's nice.
