PROVISIONS CHANGES:

The provisions of this booklet are not to be regarded as an irrevocable contract between the student and the University. The University reserves the right to change any provision or requirement at any time within the student's term of attendance. On several occasions in this document the term "campus" is used. This refers to any property owned, operated, rented or leased by The University of Scranton.

THE UNIVERSITY COMMUNITY'S RESPONSIBILITY:

The cooperation and involvement of all students, faculty, and staff in a campus safety program is absolutely necessary. Everyone must assume responsibility for their own personal safety and the security of their personal belongings by taking simple, common sense precautions. For example, any student - male or female - may feel more comfortable using the University walking escort service when returning to residence halls late at night. Room doors should be locked at night and when the room is unoccupied. Valuable items such as stereos, cameras, and televisions should be marked with engraving instruments provided by the Public Safety Department at no charge. Bicycles should be registered with the Public Safety Department and secured with a lock when not in use. Students with cars should park them in a well-lighted area and keep them locked at all times. Valuables should not be left where they can be seen in the vehicle but should be locked in the trunk. Everyone should report to Public Safety any unusual incidents and suspicious-looking individuals whom they feel do not belong in their residence halls or on campus.

COMPLAINT RESOLUTION PROCEDURE:

Complaints pertaining to campus security information provided to applicants, students, and employees will be referred to Mr. Richard A. Pomager, Jr., Director of Public Safety, Parking and Public Safety Pavilion, The University of Scranton, Scranton, PA 18510-4584. Appeals of decisions from the Director of Public Safety may be made to:

Attorney General
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
14th Fl. Strawberry Square
Harrisburg, PA 17120
