All Escort providers undergo interpersonal and sensitivity training. However, University Police Student Assistants are not bodyguards and are not required to become involved in physical confrontations. Your Escort provider will be in constant contact with the University Police desk via police radio. University Police Officers may be identified by their gray police uniform. University Police Student Assistant Escorts may be identified by their red UPSA jacket or shirt, red UPSA cap, and ID tag.
All Escorts carry two-way police radios for quick dispatch and prompt service.
You may obtain a walking Escort from any location on campus. An escort can not leave the campus grounds. The Escort Shuttle Van has a permanent route that the van can not leave for any reason other than extreme emergencies. A map of the Escort Shuttle Van route can be obtained at the University Police Office in Chase Hall. When you call you will need to give the dispatcher your name, address, telephone number, location, and destination.
