Students, faculty and staff share the responsibility of keeping our campus safe and together work hard to have resources in place. The campus community is guided by the Principles of Community, which describes the type of safe, supportive and caring community K-State seeks to foster.

LiveSafe – a safety app for students and parents
Kansas State University is introducing a safety app for smartphones called LiveSafe.
LiveSafe enables smartphone users to anonymously send text, photo and video tips to campus police at the Manhattan and Salina campuses; have friends and family monitor their walks using GPS; find campus safety procedures and resources; and more.
LiveSafe is free and can be downloaded on any iPhone and Android-based device through iTunes or Google Play. The app is available to students, faculty, staff, campus visitors, parents and community members.

Sign up for K-State Alerts to notify you in case of an emergency. K-State Alerts will send you a text, email or voice message if there is an alert for campus. Alert beacons, police public address system and website postings will warn the community in the event of a campus emergency.
