POLICE BEAT

Pick up the paper every Friday to read the Public Safety call log and learn ways to protect yourself and your belongings.

Safety Tip of the Week: Here are some safety tips from Director Christensen of Public Safety.

There is never a need to be paranoid, but being cautious in this day and age should be second nature.

Be alert when out and about:

* If possible, go out with friends or family, not alone.

* Carry your purse close to your body, not dangling by the straps.

* Put your wallet in your front pants pocket.

* Don’t carry credit cards you don’t need or large amounts of cash.

* Whether you are a passenger or driver, keep car doors locked.

* Be particularly alert in parking lots and garages. Park near an entrance.

* Sit close to the driver or near the exit while riding the bus or train.

* If someone or something makes you uneasy, trust your instincts and leave.

If you are a victim of a crime, call the Department of Public Safety at 305-284-6666 or if calling from a campus phone dial 8-6666.
