±«Óãtv Campus Safety Week

Promoted by the Clery Center, in 2008, National Campus Safety Awareness Month was unanimously approved by Congress to encourage a public conversation on important topics in violence prevention at our nation's colleges and universities. In honor of National Campus Safety Awareness Month, the ±«Óãtv Department of Emergency Management and University of South Florida Police Department host the annual ±«Óãtv Campus Safety Week. Numerous safety related trainings are provided free of charge to the ±«Óãtv community throughout the week, and the week culminates in the annual ±«Óãtv Campus Safety Day event. The event provides an opportunity to educate the campus community on safety, disaster preparedness, and crime prevention.
