    Security Tips for Commuters

    When parking your car on campus, remember to practice the following tips:

    • Never leave your windows open.
    • Always keep your doors locked.
    • Keep valuable items at home or on your person. If you must leave them in your vehicle, lock them in the trunk.
    • Keep the inside of your car as clutter-free as possible (do not leave textbooks or anything that might give a thief the slightest temptation to break into your vehicle).
    • Secure your registration and insurance card on your person or in a secure, hidden place inside the vehicle.听Never leave valuable documents in your car that could help a thief identify who you are or where you live.

    Visit the听 website for more safety tips. Your auto insurance agency听may have additional听suggestions to offer as well.

    If you ever feel uncomfortable walking to or from your car, regardless of the time of day, contact Public Safety听for a Safety Escort at 937-775-2111.听It is better to be cautious now than to have regrets later. Furthermore, try to park in areas that are well lit or in lots close to buildings or high traffic areas.
