Secure Environments

Campus Maintenance Policies Help Keep You Safe

Pitt has installed and maintains exterior lighting around all of its buildings, as well as additional sidewalk and street lighting. While maintaining an attractive campus, ground crews keep shrubs and hedges low for safety reasons, especially in places such as bus stops.

On any normal workday, there are scores of Pitt support personnel whose jobs include providing inspection of the entire campus and its buildings to discover and correct health, safety, and maintenance problems. They work in addition to Pitt police and others who tour campus to report safety-related problems to the Division of Facilities Management, which responds to correct these problems promptly.

As part of their duties, residence life staff members continuously report security and maintenance matters. Emergency maintenance and housekeeping services are available 24 hours a day.
