RAVE Guardian

Updated
ByVince DiScipio

The RAVE Guardian app provides several tools you can use to enhance your safety on campus The app connects with Campus Safety and has options for seeking other emergency or critical support and filing incident reports.  You will create a profile with as much personal information as you desire that will be shared with Campus Safety only* (such as contact information, medical conditions, emergency contacts, etc.). This will allow officers to respond quickly and precisely to you.  

* information in the RAVE app is not shared with other College systems, such as Colleague or the Wellness Center, so remember to keep your contact information up-to-date in Colleague Self-Service and to let Wellness know about changes in your medical information. 

Remember to “allow location services” and to keep your Wi-Fi turned “on” when on campus.  This allows the app to time-, date- and location-stamp any call for help or concern and enable Campus Safety to track that information for investigation and response.
