This survey explores the presence of weapons and the perception of being 'safe' on campus and in the local community.
Most students feel they are 'safe' both on campus and in the local community.
There was a difference between groups of students in 'feeling safe' on campus and in the local community. Fewer women than men said they felt safe. Fewer minority than non-minority students said they felt safe. A majority of students felt that the University should have 'zero tolerance' when enforcing violations involving illegal, non-registered weapons on campus. Fewer students thought that the University should hold students accountable for off campus violations involving weapons.
