Department of Security >>Anti-Theft Tips Theft is the most prevalent crime confronting the University community. Most thefts can be prevented or made more difficult with attention paid to the following: Be certain that all doors are locked when rooms and offices are not occupied. An open door is a thief's best friend. Even if you are going out for only a few minutes, lock your door. Do not give your key to anyone. At night, personal and University property should be placed in a locked desk or cabinet whenever possible. Computers and typewriters can and should be anchored down. Security can provide you with information relative to obtaining these devices. Money and stamps should be stored in a cash box and kept in a locked cabinet. Each office should have an inventory of University and personal effects kept on the premises. Serial numbers should be recorded since they make recovery and identification easier when an item is stolen. An up-to-date record of equipment out for repair, on loan, or replaced should be kept. An accurate key-control log must be kept, and keys must be returned by staff or students who no longer need them. Even the most sophisticated security systems are rendered useless without effective key control. When using any public facility, purses and wallets should not be left unattended even for a minute. In the time it takes to get a book or meal, a purse can be stolen. Employees should lock valuables in their desks.
