Be aware: The Department of Public Safety recommends that you travel in partners or large groups. If you must walk alone, be sure to keep the safety tips below in mind.

• If you carry a handbag with a shoulder strap, wear the strap across your chest
• Hide your valuables. Smart phones and other mobile devices can be a target for thieves. Keep them concealed when not in use
• Try and walk in large groups, particularly at night.  If walking alone, use Campus Walk by calling 416.675.8500
• Walk with confidence and travel in well lit areas
• If you feel threatened, make a scene, draw attention to yourself and head towards an area with people
• Report any suspicious activity immediately
• Trust your instincts.  If it doesn’t feel safe, it probably isn’t
