Campus Safety

Student safety is a top priority at SFA. A new outdoor alert system recently was installed to quickly notify SFA students of threatening weather or other on-campus dangers, should the need ever arise. In addition, a mobile text alert system has been installed to provide supplemental information about the emergency. The University Police Department is open 24/7 and provides patrol protection throughout campus. Students can use any of the numerous emergency call boxes to request information, an escort, vehicle assistance or other police response.
