College students are vulnerable to robberies and physical harm at the hands of criminals. Increasingly, parents are hiring private security guards to patrol campuses and living areas where their children attend school. This is the case at UC Berkeley where parents hired security guards to patrol the dorm buildings and surrounding areas from 6:30 p.m. to 3:00 a.m.

An Added Layer Of Security. College campuses typically have their own security staff. However, it is difficult for the staff to patrol the entire campus and living areas effectively. For the UC Berkeley parents, they felt they needed extra security in the evening hours when most incidents occurred. School administration couldn’t provide the resources, so parents took it upon themselves to step up security.

College private security guards patrol around dorm rooms and off-campus housing, student parking structures and along streets and pathways to and from campus. Students who feel unsafe can ask guards to escort them to their dorm or class.

Adding private security in strategic areas in and around college campuses can ensure students a safe and secure learning environment.
