Be Safe On Campus
At the UofS, we are blessed to be a low crime campus, compared to other Canadian universities. However, we still live in a city with one of the highest rates of crime per capita, in the world. Campus Safety works hard through out the year to maintain safety on our campus. Each year they post statistics of crime activity/operations on campus on their website . In 2011, there was a total of 365 suspicious vehicles or persons that were reported, 27 reports of harassment, I sexual assault and 1 robbery.
Every now and then Campus Safety will require your assistance in identifying potential culprits. Make sure you check out their website once in a while to see if you've spotted any of the people identified.
Although we experience a low count of crime activity, we continue to encourage people of the UofS community to not walk alone at night and if needed contact Safewalk at 966-SAFE(7233).
Currently, the Saskatoon Police and many others, are requesting assistance in finding a UofS student that went missing in December. The search for Hamza Alsharief, has not yet located his whereabouts. However, we all remain hopeful that our fellow student is safe. If you have seen him or have any information regarding the whereabouts of Hamza Alsharief, please contact the Saskatoon Police Service at 975-8300 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
Take Care.
