How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

They pretty much patrol all through the night. They go from dorm to dorm and do a quick walk through of the bottom floor to make sure every thing is okay. If you have any trouble with a car not starting they also would give a jump. Very friendly for the most part.
