Suspicious Activity

If Someone is Trying to Remove Furniture/Equipment From the Building

• Ask to see identification or a work order. If they refuse, call the Police (911) and then call Premier Security (507-281-4952).
• Weekends/evenings call the police immediately if they refuse to give you ID. Follow up with a call to Premier Security, 507-281-4952.

Question Strangers in Staff Areas and Escort Them To/From Destinations

• “May I help you?” is a polite way to ask someone why he or she is in a particular area.
• If the person is hesitant to answer, ask who or what he or she is trying to find. This line of questioning usually will determine whether or not the person belongs in the space.
• Call the police and Premier Security if the stranger refuses to answer or will not leave the area.

Inappropriate But Non-Threatening Behavior

• If people are doing inappropriate things in the space occupied by UMR, but are non-threatening, call the police and Premier Security.

Security Personnel

• Security personnel are on duty in the evening on 3rd and 4th floors of University Square during those days when UMR is in session. The security personnel make evening checks for the 4th floor of Broadway Hall. They are also on duty 24hrs/day, seven days/week in University Square. Don’t hesitate to call 507-281-4952 to ask them to walk you to your car.

If you feel Uncomfortable with a Situation or Person

• Let the police decide if it is an emergency. If the police do not handle your call appropriately or don't respond, contact your supervisor.
