Rave Guardian
Rave Guardian is a free mobile app for personal safety. Through the app, you can get connected to emergency services (University Police on-campus, 911 off-campus), receive campus-wide notifications of safety hazards, and invite your "Guardians" to join your safety network. Guardians are friends, family, others that you trust, and once they're in your network, you can request that they virtually accompany you on potentially unsafe trips. You can also share your location, even without a cell signal.
Rave Guardian is available on the Apple Store and the Google Play Store. For more information: https://www.ravemobilesafety.com/rave-guardian-app/

Humboldt Clery Act Compliance
Clery Act Overview
The Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Crime Statistics Act (Clery Act for short) became federal law in 1990. It is considered a consumer protection law that focuses on transparency around campus crime policy and statistics. We hope this creates a more transparent culture, fostering trust of prospective families and ensuring an environment that encourages students’ academic and emotional security.
