Safety Escorts

University Public Safety provides a safety escort program for students, employees, and guests whose circumstances require them to travel alone on campus, in isolated areas after dark, during times of low activity or whenever there is concern for one's own personal safety.

Hours of Operation

The service operates seven nights a week from dusk to dawn.

How to Request a Safety Escort

• Call (507) 537-7252 at the desired time of transportation
• Provide your first name
• Give your current location, and the desired destination location
• Prepare to be ready when Public Safety arrives

Because of the various patrol functions required of the officers, there may sometimes be a short waiting period. Waiting times may vary depending on the number of calls and the locations of the escorts.

Please Note the Following

• The Safety Escort procedure requires that the beginning and ending destinations be on campus.
• Be sure to find a safe, well-lit location to wait for the escort.
