Public Safety Tips.
  1. Do not walk alone. Walk with a friend or a public safety escort (ext. 2552 on the Sugar Grove campus) or stay near a group of people.

  2. Park and walk in well lit areas.

  3. Walk at a steady pace and make brief eye contact with the people around you. This shows confidence, which acts as a deterrent to attackers.

  4. Be aware of your surroundings. Familiarize yourself with the locations of hallway telephones and emergency call boxes.

  5. If you are ever being followed by a vehicle when you are walking, quickly turn around and walk in the opposite direction.

  6. When returning to your car, be alert to anyone under or around your car and look inside before getting in.

  7. Trust your intuition and act on it. If you feel uncomfortable, there is a reason for it.

  8. If you see someone or something suspicious, let Public Safety know by calling ext. 2552 (for the Sugar Grove campus) or ext. 4142 (for the Aurora campus) or by using an emergency call box.

  9. If you have a concern, question or suggestion regarding campus safety, let the Department of Public Safety know by visiting their Sugar Grove campus office on the first floor of Dickson Center, or by calling them at ext. 2552.
