CAMPUS CRIMES AND EMERGENCIES

The Kennesaw State campus is relatively crime free. However, there are times when emergencies arise or crimes occur. The KSU Department of Public Safety is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Someone is always available to answer calls. There are several ways to contact the department for assistance:

  • Telephone. If you are on campus, dial extension 6666. If you are off campus, call (770)423-6666.

  • Through E-mail.For non-emergency questions, comments or concerns, e-mail safensound@kennesaw.edu.

  • Emergency phones. Emergency phones are located in all parking lots, along several streets, in building hallways, in all elevators, and in all parking decks and provide direct contact with the department.

  • In person. The Department of Public Safety is located in the Public Safety Building, building #20 on your campus map, near the West Parking Deck. The department maintains a community policing office, the North Precinct, at the University Village, building 6000 adjacent to the North Parking Deck.

    Reporting crimes or emergencies is voluntary. We encourage you to report crimes or emergencies immediately to ensure a prompt response. Reports should be made to the Department of Public Safety.

    Anonymous non-emergency confidential reports may be made by calling our Tipster line at 770-423-6305.

  • Timely warning notices. In the event that a situation arises, either on or off campus that constitutes an ongoing or potential threat, a campus wide "timely warning" will be issued. When the KSU police department determines it is in he best interest of the community, the warning will be issued through student, faculty and staff e-mail.

    The intent of the warning is to enable members of the campus community to protect themselves and promote safety. In extreme cases, warning messages may be transmitted via "Connect-Ed," the university's mass notification system.
