Violence on Campus

If you witness an act of violence on campus:

1. Get away from the situation as quickly as possible.
2. If you cannot get away, take cover to protect yourself.
3. Dial 911 or 765-285-1111 to report the incident. If you are on campus and do not have a telephone, look for one of the emergency telephones located across campus. The phones have a blue light on top and the word “emergency.” To use the phone, press the button and talk into the speaker.
   

If a threat to human safety occurs on campus:

1. The campus emergency warning sirens may emit a continuous three-minute sound warning.
2. Information—including safety instructions for students, faculty, and staff—will be made available to the campus community through e-mail, opt-in text messaging, voice mail, the Ball State Web site, and local radio and TV stations.
3. Updated information about the situation will be posted on the Ball State Web site as available.
