Tip of the Week:

Stay alert to avoid off campus theft!

● Stay alert and be aware of everything around you. Take a minute to observe who may be watching you. Criminals often target people who are distracted.

● Don’t use short cuts through alleys or walkways; stay in well-lit and well-traveled areas.

● If you must take a wallet or purse, carry it close to your body with the clasp nearest you and be alert.  They are prime targets of criminals in crowded shopping areas, transportation terminals, bus stops, on buses and other rapid transit.  Never leave your wallet or purse
unattended in a shopping cart or on a counter.

● Avoid carrying large amounts of cash – use debit card, credit card or check.

● Cash should be carried in a front pocket. Do not display large sums of cash.

● Make a list of all your credit/debit cards and their numbers and keep this list at home. This will assist you and the police if they are stolen.  Notify the credit card issuer immediately if your credit card is lost, stolen or misused.
