Contractor Escort

The Department of Public Safety provides an escort to all outside contractors in order to ensure that the campus remains safe and secure.  The purpose of the escort is to guarantee that occupants of campus buildings are safe while work is being done.  Should you have outside contractors who need to do work inside residential halls or high-security areas, they will need an escort.
