PUBLIC SAFETY DEPARTMENT
The RIT Public Safety Department is a well-trained, professional security agency that serves the RIT community, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Although each individual is ultimately responsible for his or her own personal safety, the Public Safety Department provides a variety of security services and prevention programs to the campus community. Services provided include: all requests for ambulance service, fire, occupational, criminal, accident and injury investigations, as well as providing a campus escort service. The Public Safety offices are located in Grace Watson Hall.

RITPublicSafetyEmergency Preparedness:
RIT’s emergency responses are based on a national model that is very flexible and can be applied to any scenario. RIT regularly communicates,
prepares, and practices emergency management with area service providers and campus managers. If necessary, we will provide updated information through
broadcast email, mass notification system (RIT Alert), voicemail, and the university’s Web site at http://www.rit.edu/.
More information on emergency and safety procedures can be found at: http://finweb.rit.edu/publicsafety/preparedness/.
Blue light campus courtesy telephones are also available throughout campus. The Public Safety Department sponsors several special programs during the year.
Offered are such topics as personal safety, residential security, crime prevention, early behavior intervention, and alcohol awareness.
Additional information about Public Safety services, security procedures, emergency preparedness and crime statistics can be found in the Public Safety
