In the ideal world, campuses across the country would be crime free. Unfortunately, we know that campuses are not immune from everyday occurrences in life. Good policing is only half the equation to reducing criminal activity-the other half rests with the decisions and actions of the student body. What can you do? Avoid situations that could make you vulnerable, follow common safety practices such as locking your doors, not storing valuables in your car, and reporting all unusual, troubling, or threatening events, including serious illness or injury, as soon as possible to the Police/Security Department.

BICYCLE THEFT PREVENTION
Bicycle theft is a common problem on college campuses. Most bicycles that are stolen are either unlocked or secured with poor quality locks. Remember to lock your bike to a bike rack whenever possible! Bikes that are not secured to solid objects are easy targets for thieves. Click on the link to see more tips on how to keep your bicycle safe. Please register your bike with Wittenberg's Police/Security Office on My Witt.

BREAK-INS AND BURGLARY PREVENTION
Remember that locks are there for a reason and can be your biggest advantage in preventing break-ins to your room or apartment. Lock your doors at all times - even when you are home. This way, you and your property have a better chance of staying safe. Click on the link for more tips and information.

PREVENT UNWANTED SEX
You always have the right to say NO, and rape is never the victim's fault. You are never obligated to have sex. It does not matter if:

• You have been making out.
• You have been drinking.
• You have had sex before.
• You said yes and then changed your mind.
• Your partner says, "You owe me."
• You're wearing sexy clothing.
• You think he/she will get mad.

You can still say NO!
