Safety and security on university and college campuses around South Africa is extremely important. With an increasing number of students, it can be difficult to ensure that everyone is safe and secure all the time. Fortunately, there are steps you can take to ensure your safety and security while attending school. Here are some tips on how to stay safe and secure on campus.
It is important to be aware of the security system in place at your school. Many universities and colleges around South Africa have dedicated campus security teams who patrol the grounds and respond to emergency calls. Make sure you are familiar with the staff and protocols for emergency situations, and that you know where the safe zones are, in case you ever need to seek refuge.
Your dorm room or off-campus accommodation should always be secured when you are not there. Always keep the door locked and use quality locks on the windows, if applicable. Do not forget to lock your door when leaving, even if it is just for a few minutes. This can be a good habit to get into and can help prevent theft or unauthorized access.
If you notice any suspicious activity on campus, notify the campus security team as soon as possible. Be aware of your surroundings and who is around you at all times. If you are ever in a situation you feel unsafe in, trust your instincts and remove yourself from the environment.
Always keep your belongings secure by carrying them with you at all times and using a padlock on any lockers you may use. Backup all of your important documents on an external hard drive or cloud storage, in case you ever lose them or they get stolen. Consider investing in anti-theft devices and alarms if your belongings are particularly valuable.
It is important to stay connected with friends and family while on campus. We recommend using one of the range of cellphone safety apps available to South African students. These cellphone apps are designed to help you in an emergency and track your location. Stay connected with your friends and family, this way they can help you in an emergency.
Be mindful of the information you post online. Burglars and other criminals may use your social media posts to find out when it is convenient for them to break into your room or steal your belongings. Keep your posts private, or at least make sure your location and any details that could identify you are not visible.
