Security guards are on duty during the evening hours to ensure the safety and security of the complex and residents. UNM maintains eight residence halls on campus. Residence halls are secured at 7 p.m. and entry is controlled by key access. Visitation policies vary from one residence hall to another. A professional staff member is on duty 24 hours a day, seven days a week at the Student Residence Center desk.
Resident advisors are available around the clock in each residence hall to assist students.
Further information can be obtained from the Residence Hall Handbook. The UNM Police Department encourages anyone who is the victim or witness to any crime to promptly report the incident to the police. Because police reports are public records under state law, the UNM Police Department cannot hold reports of crime in confidence. Confidential reports for purposes of inclusion in the annual disclosure of crime statistics can generally be made to other UNM campus security authorities, as identified below. The UNM Police Department compiles and reports annual crime statistics to inform the University community about crime and related problems.
