At Take Back the Night on April 7, Vice President for Public Safety Maureen Rush explained how students could use the Penn Guardian app to anonymously report sexual assaults.

The University created the HELP line at 215-898-HELP (215-898-4357), a number available 24/7 when students need help understanding Penn’s resources for health and wellness.

Compared to last year's Fling, hospitalizations, liquor law violations and the number of houses listed as disturbances all went up.

DPS last sent a safety alert on March 29 after a power outage in the area of 34th and Walnut streets.

Every year, the Division of Public Safety coordinates with the Vice Provost for University Life and the Medical Emergency Response Team to prepare for Spring Fling to make sure all students are safe.

This flurry of safety alerts seems to point to an increase in crime during this past March, but the statistics suggest that crime trends have remained steady.
