Crime Prevention Tips

PBCC has an excellent record of providing a safe and secure environment for students, personnel and visitors, however, each individual should take every precaution to prevent crime against themselves or others. Lack of vulnerability is the key.

Follow these tips to help make your visit safe.
- Park your vehicle in a well-lighted area, have your door key in your hand.
- Don't Walk Alone - When walking to your car use the buddy system.
- When approaching your car, use the "long view" angle to glance beneath the vehicle; take a few seconds to look around; and before getting in, look in the front and back areas.
- When you are in your car lock your doors immediately.
- If you are being followed, go to the nearest area where there are other people or where you can receive help or call Security.
- Don't wait until the next day to report suspicious or dangerous situations - report them immediately.
- Be sure to always lock your car.
- Don't leave valuable items laying on the seat or floorboard.
- If you are in doubt - call campus Security.
