University Police & Public Safety

Penn State’s Environmental Health and Safety team will host virtual and in-person events for the University’s research and academic community as part of its Lab Safety Awareness Week initiative, Feb. 9-13.

Penn State offers comprehensive, confidential support, education, and reporting resources for students and employees affected by sexual misconduct for the 2026 spring semester.

The beginning of a new semester at Penn State marks more than just the start of classes. For some students, the new semester also marks their first time living on their own, and with that independence also comes the need for personal responsibility for one’s own safety and security.

As part of our regular “We Are!” feature, we recognize 19 Penn Staters who have gone above and beyond what’s asked of them in their work at the University.  

Penn State University Police and Public Safety, in partnership with Penn State Intercollegiate Athletics, has announced its second annual “Cram the Cruiser” donation drive event benefiting Toys for Tots. This community-focused initiative, scheduled from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 6, aims to gather donations for local families in need during the holiday season.
