Campus Safety Month

Safety is a priority at Georgia State University. It is so important, that Campus Safety Week has been extended to Campus Safety Month. In 2008, National Campus Safety Awareness Month (NCSAM) was unanimously approved by Congress to encourage a public conversation on important topics in violence prevention at our nation’s colleges and universities. Georgia State University supports this initiative by providing the campus community with events, workshops, safety information, and safety walks on each campus.

Thank you to everyone who participated in last years' Campus Safety Month! The campus safety fairs were informative for all participants regarding safety information. Many changes are occurring as a result of the campus safety walks. A big thanks to University Housing and the Georgia State University Police Department for funding the safety fair. Also, thank you to the Counseling and Testing Center, Dean of Students Office, Risk Management, and the Recreation Center for funding programs throughout the week. Lastly, thank you to the Student Government Association for actively participating in the campus safety walks.
