How safe is Providence College?
Some of the many campus security measures that are in place include our Emergency Blue Light system, strict fire codes which are mandated under Rhode Island State Law, and the 24-hour patrolling of campus and its gates by our professional security officers. In the wake of the campus tragedies across the nation, many measures have been taken to ensure the safety and security of the Providence College campus and greater community. College President Brian J. Shanley, O.P. recently appointed a committee to revise and implement new security procedures and initiatives, and also created the position of director of emergency management.
