Stay Safe
Dear Colleagues:
Now that students have returned to classes and the Íøºì±¬ÁÏ, Baltimore (UMB) is back in full swing, the UMB Police Force wants to remind everyone that we all play a role in ensuring the University is a safe place in which to work and study.
Here are a few things you can do to stay safe, especially as the daylight hours grow shorter:
* Be alert and aware of your surroundings;
* When you are outside, avoid using earbuds and wait until you reach your destination to use your cellphone; and
* Walk with a friend or in groups.
As a reminder, for travel between UMB buildings and garages (and the Íøºì±¬ÁÏ Medical Center), we offer Safe Walk/Safe Ride services every day of the year. The Safe Walk service is available 24 hours a day and the Safe Ride service is available from 3 p.m. to 1 a.m. See our map for the boundary and for more details. To request either service, please call 410-706-6882 (6-6882 on a campus telephone).
I urge you to call UMB Police if you need assistance or if you see anything suspicious. For emergency calls, dial 911. The number for non-emergencies is 410-706-6882.
Sincerely,
Alice K. Cary, MS
Chief of Police
