•
Keep,
your purse, wallet, keys, and other small, valuable items
with
you at all times or locked in a drawer or closet.
• Politely ask any strangers who may
come into your office who they are,
whom they are visiting, and see if you can help in
finding that person. If
this makes you feel uncomfortable, inform security
about your suspicions.
• Avoid using stairs in remote sections
of the building.
•
Let
someone know where you’ll be, whether it’s coming
in late, working
late, or going out to lunch or a meeting.
• Be
discreet. Don’t advertise you or your co-worker’s
plans for being
away to visitors you don’t know or people calling
your place of work.
Report broken or flickering lights, dimly lit corridors,
doors and windows
that are broken, or don’t close or lock properly.
Don’t assume someone
else will do it.
• After hours—Create
a buddy system for walking to parking lots or
public transportation or call security to escort
you.
• Call for campus security
if anyone or anything causes you apprehension.
• Program your cell
phone to dial security, 410-516-7777, for campus emergencies
and 911 for off campus emergencies.
• Have to work late?
Make sure there are others in the building, and ask someone—a
colleague or security guard—to walk you to your car
or
bus
stop.
• Emergency phones provide
a direct line to Security. When walking on
campus and an emergency occurs use the Emergency
Phones and press
the red button.
