See below for safety resources from department chair Laura Lowes.

1. Safety Escort & Shuttle Services: If you need to walk around campus at night, for example going back to your car after your evening class, you can request that a security guard walk with you. This is called “Husky NightWalk”. This service can also help with dead batteries and building lockouts. The page also describes a shuttle service, called “NightRide”, which sounds really useful, so please check it out.
2. SafeZone App: This is an app that provides quick and easy access to safety assistance. Please see the attached flier and the following link: https://www.safezoneapp.com/
3. General safety tips when walking on campus in the evening:

1. 1. Carry a flashlight and use it.
   2. Stay aware of your surroundings (no talking on your cell phone).
   3. Preferably walk in groups.
   4. Carry a whistle. The UWPD will drop off a few whistles for us to try. If there is interest, we will purchase a bag of them and anyone interested will be able to pick one up from the reception.
2. Finally, never hesitate to call for help if a situation is arising or you witness suspicious behavior.

1. 1. The SafeZone App makes that especially easy with clear buttons to request different types of assistance.
   2. SafeCampus should be called to anonymously discuss safety and well-being concerns for yourself or others. The SafeCampus page describes when to call them.
   3. Call 911 from any campus telephone to make a report to a commissioned peace officer.
   4. Outside the University system, dial 911 and the dispatch operator will patch you through to the appropriate law enforcement agency that has jurisdiction.
   5. To report a non-emergency safety matter, call the UWPD through the non-emergency line at 206.685.8973. You may dial 5.8973 within the University telephone system. The UWPD Dispatch Center is available 24 hours per day, every day of the year.
