The university is now offering students and employees a new way to help keep themselves safe on campus. The Rave Guardian app, available at both the App Store and Google Play, allows users to turn their smart phone into a personal safety device. In addition to allowing quick access to campus safety resources and one-button 911 access, the Guardian app includes a safety timer that allows users to designate friends or family members to virtually walk them home.

Downloading and installation is simple:

1. Visit the App Store or Google Play.


2. Search for Rave Guardian.


3. Download, launch and follow the instructions from there.
