Colorado Mesa University intends to provide the safest possible environment for our staff and students. However, it must be recognized that ultimately each individual is also responsible for aspects of his or her own safety and security. Further, the input of both staff and students is vital to ensuring Campus Safety Officers' ability to carry out their charge and aid in the prevention of crime or other incidents. We need your help keeping CMU safe!
