WSU Pullman Campus Safety Resources

If you ever feel immediately unsafe on campus or in the greater community, please call 9-1-1.

We hope that each member of our community will embody the “Cougs help Cougs” mentality every day. This means that if you see something, please say something. Even if you’re not sure, please contact emergency services. When in doubt, call 9-1-1.

The WSU Police Cadet Corps offers a free on-foot escort service for students and employees to and from campus Thursday-Saturday from 9 p.m. to 12 a.m. Call non-emergency dispatch at 509-332-2521 to request a cadet escort.

Bus routes are available for evening transportation. During the academic year, the Pullman Transit Wheat and Lentil routes run Monday-Saturday until 12 a.m. and Sunday until 5:30 p.m.

  • For your personal safety and convenience, after dark you can ask your driver to let you off at any safe point along your bus route. It does not have to be a regular bus stop. For safety reasons, drivers are still required to make pick ups at designated bus stops only.
  • For the most up-to-date transit information, consider downloading the PTBusBeacon app, available for both Android and iOS.

If you are on campus and need immediate help, look for one of the many emergency blue light telephones located around the area. Push the button and you will be directly connected to the Whitcom 911 Communications Center.

WSU Facilities Services staff are working diligently to ensure appropriate outdoor lighting throughout campus. If you notice a light is out, please call Facilities Dispatch at 509-335-9000 or submit a work request through myFacilities.

If you have questions about safety on campus, please contact the WSU Police business line at 509-335-8548.
