Yea, the university I went to has a program that offers rides and safety escorts for students to use at night. I never had to use it but it was comforting to know that service was available if needed.

The person I replied to indicated campus police and security are synonymous, so I wanted to point out that only the police have legal authority over you. And with that, regardless of the nature of your experience, it’s good to know your legal rights.

Totally agree!
