We’re proud to provide you with the comprehensive CampusShield Safety System!

The CampusShield Safety App
Protect yourself with the CampusShield safety app today! It’s completely FREE and contains no in app purchases. Learn more and download below.

Your CampusShield mobile safety app contains the following features:
- Emergency Slider: Think of this as your ‘digital blue light’. If you ever need the help of Campus Safety, swipe from left to right while on campus.
- Submit Information to Campus Safety: This is your ‘See Something, Say Something’ feature while around campus. If you see safety concerns, you can quickly and easily send text, photo and videos, directly to Campus Safety. Campus Safety may respond to your tip, even if submitted anonymously, to request more information.
- Safety Timer: This feature enables you to select up to 5 personal contacts (think, family, friends, etc.) who can all virtually monitor your safety during activities of your choosing. Contacts you select will be able to view the activities description, as well as your current location until you end the timer.
- Report a Concern to College Life: Use this feature to submit a concern to the college. Bias Incidents, CARE Concerns, and Misconduct options are available.
- Area Map: An interactive map that allows you to view the locations of important campus safety tools, such as defibrillators, weather shelters, and nearby clinics.
Does the app passively track me?
No, the app is specifically designed to only track location after an emergency activation. Even so, users can cancel the alert to immediately cease tracking functionality.
Emergency Slider
What happens if I use the emergency feature from off campus?
The app will automatically recognise that you’re not on campus and instead of sending the alert to Campus Safety, the app will generate a 911 call that you can place with an additional tap.
What information is sent to Campus Safety when I use the slider from on campus?
Your current location (if you’ve enabled the app to access location services) and your profile (first name, last name and email address).
Does the app track my location after using the Emergency Slider?
Yes. You can stop this location tracking by pressing the ‘End Alert’ button.
Submit Information to Campus Safety
Is my location information shared with Campus Safety when I submit a tip?
Only if you allow location sharing by toggling this option ON.
Can I submit a tip even if I’m off campus?
Yes, tips can be shared from off campus.
Can I share a photo and/or video?
Yes, as long as you allow the application to access your files, you can upload existing photos/videos or capture a new photo/video in real time.
Safety Timer
What happens when I start a timer?
An SMS message, containing a description of your activity and a link to your location, is sent to the contacts you selected.
What happens if I don’t cancel a timer before it expires?
An SMS alert will be sent to your contacts.
