Safety – Your local guide to the city and campus

Safety

Ball State’s campus is equipped with an emergency telephone system so students and visitors can easily call for help. Locate the poles topped with a blue light and simply press the button and talk into the speaker.

Ball State prides itself on having a low crime rate, and one of the ways the school keeps it low is to encourage the use of common sense for students to be alert when out and about on campus. Reducing the attractiveness of Ball State as a target for criminal activity makes the community safer for everyone.
