Will I be safe on campus?
The University of Portland is located in a quiet residential neighborhood - University Park - and it is one of the safest neighborhoods in Portland. The campus itself is patrolled 24 hours a day by several full-time officers. They patrol by car, bike, and foot, and also offer escort services between campus buildings and to nearby off-campus residences after dark. Students need to do their part, too, to deter crime by locking up valuables, keeping residence hall rooms locked when they are away, and reporting suspicious behavior to the Public Safety Department.
