CAMPUS & PERSONAL SAFETY
PERSONAL SAFETY & CRIME PREVENTION ON CAMPUS
FIDM is dedicated to providing a safe working and learning environment. All students are informed of campus security procedures during orientation and employees are informed upon hire. While Campus Security plays a role in ensuring that the campus remains as safe as possible, students and employees are also responsible for their own safety, as well as for the safety of those around them. Students and employees should be familiar with FIDM’s campus security procedures and report an incident when it occurs.
For information on FIDM’s campus security policies and crime statistics, please see FIDM’s most recent Annual Safety and Security Report, which is available on FIDM’s website:

TO REPORT A CRIME OR EMERGENCY
Students and employees should report any and all suspicious campus activity immediately upon witnessing it. Students, faculty, and staff are strongly encouraged to report all crimes to local law enforcement; dial 9-1-1 (emergencies only). Any suspicious activity or person seen in the parking lots or loitering around vehicles or inside the building should be reported
to the local law enforcement agency. The Annual Safety and Security Report contains applicable contact information.

Only registered students are permitted in the classroom. Authorized guests/ visitors are allowed on campus with prior approval and notification to Security from FIDM Staff for college business purposes.

EARTHQUAKE PREPAREDNESS
In an earthquake, falling objects pose the greatest danger. Students should get under a sturdy desk or table if possible. Kneel down and cover the head with the arms. Duck, cover and hold. If evacuation is necessary, follow the arrows to the nearest exit as indicated on the Emergency Procedures maps posted behind classroom doors.
