Take Immediate Action.

Report any suspicious activity of safety concern immediately, as prompt reporting increases the ability of law enforcement and other emergency services to respond or to apprehend any suspects. Get out of harm’s way and be familiar with a RUN. HIDE. FIGHT protocol.

Prepare Your Cell Phone.

• Carry a charged cell phone at all times. Add 51������ Safety Office to your contacts and mark it as a favorite. Office: (918) 335-6206 and Emergency number: (918) 876-2529
• ��𲵾����ٱ����to receive 51������ ALERT emergency notifications. 51������ ALERT emergency notifications are issued to share information requiring urgent action and to share weather-related delays or closings. You may choose to receive 51������ ALERTS as text, voice, and/or email messages.

Safety Precautions.

• Secured doors must not be propped open. An unsecured door jeopardizes the privacy and safety of all floor members.
• Do not walk alone at night from one building to another, or back to a residence hall. If you work or study late, have a friend accompany you while walking or jogging at night.
• Keep office, classroom, or lab doors locked at all times when studying at night.
• Have residence doors locked at all times and know who is at the door before answering it.
