In light of this incident, the University Police would like to share the following safety tips to help protect you and your property:
- Always remember to shut and secure both your exterior and interior room doors, regardless of the time of day.
- Be cognizant of who is behind you while entering a building, and do not allow an unknown individual to follow you in.
- Never let anyone into a residence hall you are not sure lives there.
- Keep valuables out of sight, including purses and wallets, cell phones, electronics and jewelry, and never leave your valuables unattended, even if it is for a short period of time.
- Leave unnecessary valuable items securely in your residence. Carry only the minimum amount of money or credit cards.
- Be aware of your surroundings and alert at all times. Cell phone conversations while walking can distract you from the situations developing around you. If you must talk on your cell phone while traveling, use a hands-free device so you can keep your phone secure and out of sight.
