Prevention and Education Programs Stevens Campus Police and Student Affairs staff stress the importance of crime prevention and safety for the Stevens community. Crime prevention workshops regarding personal safety, fire safety, firearms awareness, drunk driving, the safeguarding of personal property, and safeguarding against online frauds and scams are presented to campus organizations and student groups throughout the year. Stevens’ approach to providing campus safety and security is one of community policing and partnership building within the University community and with Stevens’ host city, Hoboken, N.J. In all its communications with students, faculty and staff, Campus Police reminds community members of the importance of taking responsibility for their own security and the security of others. Students, faculty, and staff are encouraged to take advantage of all available resources to protect themselves, including the shuttle service and escort service described above. Annual Training To promote student well-being and support compliance with federal regulations, Stevens Institute of Technology requests that all faculty, staff, and student workers complete two training courses biannually. The first course, Title IX: Building Supportive Communities, is a 60-minute module addressing sexual harassment, sexual assault, relationship violence, stalking, and Title IX protections, including those related to pregnancy. The second course, Fostering Student Mental Health, is a 30-minute training that provides an overview of common mental health challenges in higher education and offers guidance on recognizing and responding to students in distress. The module’s interactive exercises take students through real-world scenarios and encourage students to challenge sexist language and attitudes, provide guidance for supporting someone who has experienced harm, and promote healthy relationships based on positive communication and respect, empowering students to create safe, healthy campus environments. Additional training sessions Additional Title IX Trainings are offered throughout the year and facilitated by our Title IX team. Resident Assistants are required to attend Title IX training as part of a more comprehensive training program annually or more frequently; Fraternity and Sorority leaders, student athletes, peer health mentors, and other student groups also participate in Title IX training programs offered at various times throughout the year. Orientation The Title IX Coordinator gives an educational presentation to all new students during Orientation each August providing information about the University’s Title IX policy, an explanation of consent, reporting information, and ways to prevent violations of the policy. Title IX Training is provided for new Stevens employees. New employees are 20 — 2025 Annual Security and Fire Safety Report
