Get Help With an Emergency Blue Light Box
There are blue light emergency boxes located all around campus for the safety of the LU community. LU Emergency Communications monitors these boxes daily.
When pressed, the box will immediately connect an individual with dispatch.
Each encounter is videotaped and the blue light will be turned on at the same time. These blue light stations are tested monthly to ensure they are in working order.
