Wits has recently significantly improved its security, this has led to minimal reports of crime on campus and within the residences. Student cards are used to gain access to Wits Campuses and some of the residences. Security guards are posted all around the three Wits Campuses. There are several emergency intercom boxes around Main Campus. Security guards are prepared to chaperone students within the Wits Campus.
Security is, however, dependent on students playing their part.
Don't leave your rooms unlocked at any time.
