Safety and Security
The campus of Luther Seminary is generally a safe place to live,
work and visit. However, the campus is in the center of a major
metropolitan area and is vulnerable to vandalism and crime. The
seminary requests that all employees and students be aware of the
risks and take appropriate precautions. This would include:
-
securing valuables in locked desks
or lockers
-
keeping windows secured
-
not propping outside doors open
when you can’t make sure an unwanted person won’t come in
-
being alert to strange or
suspicious people
-
taking precautions to protect
vehicles
-
locking your car
-
if possible, not walking alone on
campus, especially after dark.
A student security force is available to escort
people to their cars, bus, or on campus living quarters in the
evenings. Call the switchboard to prearrange.
Student Security Cell Phone:
651-324-9911
Student Security carries a cell phone during evening
hours, from 5:00 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. If you have a security concern
or need an escort to your car, apartment or dorm room you may call
student security directly at
651-641-3213. You may still
call the Information Desk to reach security, but only during the
hours that the Campus Center is open.
Emergency procedures
If you encounter any suspicious or potentially
dangerous situation, including fire or medical emergencies, call the
police by dialing 9-911 on a campus phone. When calling 911, it is
essential that you know the actual physical address of your
location. There are signs by public phones on campus giving the
street address of the building. The information is also on the

Non-violence policy
Luther Seminary does not tolerate violence or
threats of violence. Students or staff should report all suspicious
or violent activity to Campus Services at x213.
The seminary also does not allow anyone to bring
firearms onto campus or to possess weapons anywhere on campus. Any
incidents of violence or threats of violence will result in
disciplinary action up to and including dismissal. The seminary
reserves the right to search any person, vehicle, or belongings
brought onto seminary property. Although it is the seminary’s
intention to bar guns from its property to the full extent permitted
by law, guns are permitted in seminary parking facilities to the
extent that the law does not permit their prohibition.
Security personnel
Security personnel are officially on duty from 5:00
to 11:30 p.m. daily. Their main responsibility is to check doors and
windows. Each carries a pager. All campus security guards have IDs.
Luther Seminary also has a commercial
security company that patrols the parking lots periodically during
nighttime hours.
First-aid kits
There are first-aid kits for minor injuries in the
lower level of Stub, the lower level of Gullixson, the Bockman
laundry room, the first floor of Northwestern and at the Information
Desk. Call x213 for more specific information.
Precautionary measures
Students are advised to lock their rooms or
apartments when absent and to report lost keys to the Housing
Office. It is recommended that personal property insurance be
obtained. In case of a threat to life or a crime in progress, call
9-911 first and then call Campus Services at x213. After hours
please notify your Head Resident and they will relay information to
administration. If there is a power outage, call the Campus Services
office at x213.
If you have been loaned seminary property such as a
building access card or keys, a laptop computer, cellular phone,
etc., be sure to take appropriate precautions to protect these items
from damage and theft while on or off seminary premises. The
seminary will not be held responsible for lost or stolen personal
belongings.
