Halloween

October 25, 2024

If you’re celebrating Halloween, please do so safely. Keep an eye on friends and use the buddy system. Know the signs of an alcohol emergency and know what to do. Alcohol use does not cause sexual assault, but it can be a contributing factor. If you see someone who looks unwell or unaware, or you notice something is off, be a prosocial bystander and intervene. Contact the Public Safety Communications Center at 607-255-1111 or through the Rave Guardian app, or dial 911 for any emergency. Help is always available, and remember that our Good Sam policy applies.

Other safety tips: Consider the weather forecast before you go. Follow these fire safety tips for your costumes and decorations. Do not carry realistic weapons and, most of all, be respectful to others.
