The need for security at every college, no matter how big or small, is a reality of the times. The Savannah College of Art and Design strives to provide the college community with a safe environment.

The Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police Department now offers an online community crime mapping feature. Learn more about neighborhood safety by visiting www.scmpd.org and clicking on the community crime mapping link.

Security officers patrol in and around SCAD facilities 24/7/365 and, through various programs, work closely with the student services staff to educate the college community and individuals about personal safety.

Hand-activated emergency call boxes are strategically located throughout SCAD-Savannah and SCAD-Atlanta to automatically signal a 24-hour security dispatcher.

Security officers or building greeters are posted at many SCAD buildings - and especially residence halls - to check IDs and log in visitors.

Security staff offers safety-awareness programs.

On both locations, an on-demand shuttle service to and from the residence halls is available nightly and during inclement weather.

In the event a situation arises at SCAD or in the community that constitutes an ongoing or continuing threat, college-wide warnings will be issued through the college e-mail system and posted on MySCAD.

The Rape Aggression Defense Systems self-defense course is free of charge to all women in the SCAD community and is taught by certified faculty and staff. For more information, visit www.rad-systems.com, read the information posted in MySCAD or contact Security.

In accordance with Article II of the Student's Right-to-Know and Campus Security Act, SCAD provides a full report of the past year's crimes. The security report is available online and in the college security office in Savannah and student services office in Atlanta.

In accordance with the Clery Act, both a daily log and a weekly summary are kept of college security incidents:
