Safety and Security on Campus

The campus of Luther Seminary is generally a safe place to live, work and visit. However, the campus is in the center of a major metropolitan area and is vulnerable to vandalism and crime. The seminary requests that all students be aware of the risks and take appropriate precautions. This would include the following precautions:

• Secure valuables when not on your person;

• Keep windows secured;

• Do not prop outside doors open;

• Be alert to strange or suspicious people;

• Do not give your ID to other persons to allow them to enter secured campus buildings.

• Take precautions to protect vehicles; and

• If possible, do not walk alone on campus, especially after dark.

If you encounter any suspicious or potentially dangerous situations, call the police by dialing 911 from a cell phone. Other questions regarding security should be directed to the Facilities’ office at extension 236.
