Event Description
Public Safety will begin offering virtual, interactive,
monthly presentations on situational preparedness. These Zoom presentations
will touch on the following:
·
Students living in a new city and attending
college are susceptible to encountering dangerous situations. Being aware of
your surroundings and recognizing situations that are potentially dangerous are
key to keeping yourself safe.
·
Although there are some public safety factors
that cannot be controlled, there are measures students can take to prevent
themselves from being victims of a crime. DPS will provide tips to encourage
students to think and act accordingly—not to be scared, but to be prepared.
·
If a student is the victim of a crime, it is
vital that they report it promptly to Drexel Police so that the crime can be investigated
and Public Safety can connect the student with proper resources.
These presentations will be hosted by Drexel
Community Relations Officers Kim McClay and Thomas Cirone, and though they are focused on students, they are open to the entire Drexel community. The first one
will be held Thursday, Feb. 25, from 3-4p.m. To RSVP and receive the Zoom link,
please contact Officer Cirone at tjc94@drexel.edu or
Officer McClay at kam556@drexel.edu. |
