Safe Walk & Ride
856.256.SAFE (7233)

The purpose of the Safe Walk and Ride program is to provide a safe escort for members of the University who would otherwise have to walk alone at night or are concerned about their personal safety. The program operates from 7:00 p.m. to 3:00 a.m. while college is in session. The service provides safety escorts between the campus and private residences in close proximity to the campus.
