LiveSafe

New CVM students walk the Esplanade. We love having our students back on the WesternU Pomona campus this week during Welcome Week and Welcome Back. New students from the College of Pharmacy enjoyed getting their white coats and name badges from The Campus Store, new students from the College of Veterinary Medicine walked the Esplanade from session to session, and second-and third-year CVM students were on campus enjoying a break from a short orientation.

Safety. In everyone’s hands

This app was founded in 2013 and is now used across the United States at various higher education institutions.

It allows the campus community to report anything unusual and campus security will see it on the dashboard. Conversely, messages can be sent to either all Live Safe users or those with in a set geo-fence (think chemical spill).

  2. The location is included in the report.
  3. Media files can be included: video, photo, audio clip.
  4. Live chat option is also available.
  5. Security monitors and responds to all tips.

Safety Map:

This map allows our community, as well as visitors, to locate WesternU parking lots and buildings. Beyond our community, the map can be used to find local resources such as hospitals and the police department. If there is an incident on campus, Security can publish the event and it will show up on the safety map.
