Dear Students, Staff and Faculty,

As we begin a new academic year, Campus Safety wants to share a few reminders and resources to help everyone stay safe on and around campus.

MCAD is an Urban Campus

MCAD is located in an urban neighborhood, and members of our community regularly travel between campus, residences, parking areas, public transportation, and surrounding businesses. Being aware of your surroundings is an important part of personal safety—both on campus and as you travel through the neighborhood.

Creating or participating in a club on campus is a great way to build community and make connections. Clubs can be as formal or as casual as you like. They can center around a hobby, a favorite fandom, sports, music, cultural identity, anything that you are excited to celebrate and share. They are fully student run, and Student Affairs is here to help!
