A few additional safety tips:

In terms of study spots, it’s likely most buildings on campus will stay populated well into the night.

Even so, it’s never a good idea to leave valuables unattended. Also avoid propping doors open, and don’t allow strangers to enter the premises.

If you need cash to buy snacks, think ahead and use your ATM card during the day. If you must use it at night, go indoors or use a well-lit machine.

When it’s time to head home after a long night, walk with a friend or group of people. Download the LiveSafe app to set a safety timer for your walk home and notify friends or roommates of your location. 

To help keep yourself and others safe, it’s important to remember: If you see something, say something. Report suspicious activity to GTPD by calling 404-894-2500 or using the anonymous texting feature in the LiveSafe app. Police will also increase patrols in areas of campus frequented by students at the end of the semester.
