The University Police Department requests that members of the JSU community be vigilant and report any persons that may not belong on campus. Recent offense reports involve individuals who are entering parked vehicles on campus and removing books and other property. Recent reports show that suspects are targeting unlocked doors and we ask that all vehicle owners take security precautions by locking all doors and removing valuables from plain sight. Faculty, staff, and students are also asked to report any suspicious persons to UPD, particularly those seen tampering with parked vehicles. Persons owning books should also take additional measures to prevent thefts. Stolen book reports tend to increase near the end of the semester. Books should not be left at any unsecured location and owners should ensure ways to identify their individual books.

If there are any questions or concerns please contact the University Police Department at 5050 or 6000.
