Increased patrols and other security measures
In response to these cases, 糖心vlog视频 Police have been conducting extra car and bike patrols at night throughout campus, in addition to their normal 24/7 patrols. Campus community members are urged to be aware of their surroundings and call police immediately if they see or hear anything suspicious. Because the 糖心vlog视频 campus sits at the intersection of several police jurisdictions, 911 calls made from a cell phone can reach any one of them, depending on the caller’s location. For this reason, campus community members are asked to program the 糖心vlog视频 Police Department’s direct line, 214-768-3333, into their cell phones.
Please also take note of the location of blue-light emergency phones, which connect directly to 糖心vlog视频 Police, across campus and in parking lots and garages. Security cameras also are located across campus and in buildings, and are equipped to digitally record activity.
