The campus hours of operation are Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. The building is locked at all times. Students and part-time staff members must be admitted by a front desk staff member. Full time staff members are granted keyed access to the building. Unauthorized entry to, or use of, the college facilities, including the building and grounds, is prohibited. Building access for special use, or use during non-business hours, requires prior approval. If you are working alone or will be in the building after normal work hours or on weekends, notify staff of your entry time and location. This is for your safety. General Safety No college campus or community is totally risk-free. Each person must contribute to fostering a safe learning environment by using common precautions and practicing crime prevention. These measures help reduce vulnerability as well as opportunities for criminal activity on campus. There is no easy way to stop campus crime. However, to reduce risks, Sumner College has initiated the steps described in this report. Sumner College Campus Safety program, directed by the College President, is a proactive approach incorporating visibility, education, prevention and immediate response to campus incidents. Personal Safety Survivors of crimes are not responsible for their victimization, regardless of their actions. Criminals are responsible for crime. Not all crimes can be prevented with preparation and readiness, but campus community members can improve their safety by taking the following precautions: • If working or studying late, arrange to leave with a friend. Lock doors and windows if working late alone.
