Loyola is committed to the safety and security of students, faculty, staff, administrators, alumni and visitors. We have comprehensive campus and neighborhood security plans to assist you when you do need help. Our officers are available on foot patrol, on bikes, and in security vehicles, and our campuses are equipped with visible security phones. Residences have desk receptionists and secure entrances, and Loyola Department of Public Safety personnel readily and regularly escort students to campus and nearby apartment residences during evening and early morning hours. Our Department of Public Safety also operates a free daily shuttle bus service which links our three lakeside campuses and their diverse neighborhoods.
Busses run from early morning through the evening.
Loyola has worked diligently to be a good citizen in our Lake Shore, Water Tower and Mallinckrodt neighborhoods for a long time. We feel responsible for their maintenance and growth. However, being a city resident requires being aware that not every one is a good neighbor, and that urban life has its share on anti-social and illegal activity. To help stay safe, wherever you are, take advantage of our safety department's classes to add safety skills to your life skills. Be enriched in all aspetcts of urban living during your time at Loyola University Chicago.
