Spring on the York College campus

Campus Escort Program

Even in the best lit areas, any person may feel intimidated about walking alone after dark. In meeting its goal of promoting safety and security, the Department of Campus Safety provides escort services to members of our community.

Anyone who feels uncomfortable walking to their vehicle or between facilities in the evening should contact Campus Safety at 717.815.1314 (ext. 1314 if calling from an on-campus phone) for a walking escort to their vehicle or on-campus residence. An emergency call box may also be used to request an escort.

When requesting an escort, you will need to provide your name and location to the dispatcher so that an officer can arrive at your location in a timely manner.

Please keep in mind that response time may be delayed by campus incidents or emergencies and that officers can not provide escorts to off-campus residences.

This service is available 24-hours a day, seven days a week.

On-campus escorts take the form of an officer walking a person to their vehicle/building.

Escorts to the York Hospital emergency room or Urgent Care for medical emergencies are also available.
