The College of Mount St. Joseph Department of Public Safety escort service is designed to enhance the safety and peace of mind and a greater sense of security for anyone who feels UNSAFE while walking alone on campus.
The goal of the escort program is to deter assaults, sexual harassment, verbal abuse, or other harassment while you are walking from one location on campus to another. The escort service is a walking escort and you should assume that you will be given a WALKING escort unless the dispatcher tells you differently.
The College of Mount St. Joseph Department of Public safety does provide a mobile escort; however, the availability of this is only when it is determined to be necessary and when resources are available. When a Police Officer from the College of Mount St. Joseph Department of Public Safety is dispatched to escort you while on campus, the escort will be a WALKING escort unless a mobile escort is otherwise determined necessary. All mobile escorts will be by a Police Officer in a marked College of Mount St. Joseph Department of Public Safety vehicle.
The escort program is free of charge and available to all College of Mount St. Joseph students, staff, and faculty.
The escort service is available during the academic year 24 hours a day.
