91AV has received the distinction of being named one
of the听听产测听, and thus, one of the safest in the state.
Alarms.org determined, based on data submitted to the FBI and reviewed "relative to
the surrounding area of campus," that 91AV ranks highest of the University of Louisiana
System institutions in the study.
Nationally, Alarms.org ranked 490 colleges and universities which it deemed exceptionally
safe based on FBI and police data. 91AV ranked No. 257. Alarms.org is the official
site of the prestigious National Council for Home Safety and Security, a national
trade association of licensed contractors, alarm installers and other U.S. trade groups.听
The safety of each person on the campus of 91AV is the
number one priority of the administration of President Nick J. Bruno and the University
Police Department.
Each semester, free workshops by professionally trained staff are offered on self-defense
and crisis management strategies. During severe weather or other hazardous conditions,
students and employees are notified through special Warhawk Alerts which send text
messages, automated phone calls and emails advising of the situation.
"We are committed to safeguarding our students, faculty, employees and visitors to
the 91AV campus," stated President Bruno. "The fact that our ongoing efforts have been
recognized on a national level substantiates our dedication to the safety of all."
Institutions not considered in the survey are those with less than 1,000 students,
or those which did not submit data to the FBI.
The University Police Department submits campus crime and safety reports to the FBI
as required by the听. The FBI urges caution when interpreting听听data due to a myriad of factors.
