When walking after dark, please contact Case Protective Services for an escort. The officers will escort you anywhere on campus and the immediate area.

As usual, the majority of crimes reported are “crimes of opportunity”. These are thefts of property left unattended or unsecured. Protective Services asks that you contact them if you see any suspicious persons or activity in your building, and on campus property. The phone number is 368-3333.

Keep your possessions in sight at all times. Don't leave books, back packs, or laptop computers unattended anywhere. It only takes a matter of seconds for things to disappear.

ever leave your wallet or purse on top of your desk; take it with you or lock it up. Most women will put their purses either under the desk, or in the right-hand side bottom drawer of the desk. This typically is the largest drawer in the desk. Unfortunately, the bad guys know this also, so if you are going to leave

your desk, either lock it or put your purse in a file cabinet and secure it.

Don't leave objects plainly visible in your car; secure them in the trunk whenever possible. Even change left in the cup holder can be a temptation to a thief.

The Office of Crime Prevention has engravers or marking pens to loan to everyone on campus so that any easy-to-carry property can be marked. It is suggested that you mark your property with your driver's license number and the two letter state designation. It is not recommended that you use your social security number.

For information on the engravers and markers contact Karen Gregor at 368-6811.
