Our Mission is Simple: To Protect Everyone Who Learns, Works, Lives, and Visits Florida Gulf Coast University. That means creating an environment where every member of our community can learn, grow, and thrive. Whether it's ensuring a safe campus, preparing for emergencies, assisting with parking and transportation needs, or connecting you with resources and support services, we are here to help every step of the way. If you ever have a question, concern, or need assistance, our team is only a call, click, or visit away.

Creating a safe and welcoming campus is a shared responsibility. Each member of our Eagle community plays an important role in helping maintain the environment that makes FGCU such a special place. Here are a few ways you can contribute:

• Lock your residence hall room, apartment, and vehicle.
• Remove valuables from your vehicle or keep them out of sight.
• Follow traffic and parking regulations and drive responsibly.
• Use campus transportation services or request an after-hours safety escort when needed.
• Stay aware of your surroundings and trust your instincts.
• Report suspicious activity, safety concerns, or emergencies promptly.
• Be respectful, inclusive, and considerate of others.
• Familiarize yourself with campus safety resources and emergency procedures.

We are proud to welcome you to the FGCU community and are excited about the experiences and opportunities that await you. Together, we can ensure that FGCU remains a safe, supportive, and vibrant place for everyone. We look forward to helping make this year your best one yet.
