Jewish students on college campuses and universities have experienced heightened threats, including acts of harassment, intimidation, and assaults. Institutions of higher education bear the responsibility of ensuring the safety and security of their students, fostering an environment where all individuals feel welcome.

This set of security and safety measures, crafted by the Secure Community Network (SCN) — the official safety and security organization of the Jewish community of North America — aims to offer concrete guidance to campus and university administrators, enabling them to safeguard their students. Many of these measures are designed to benefit students from diverse backgrounds, addressing various challenges encountered in the college and university environment.
