Keene State Named Safest College in NH by ADT

Campus safety is a concern for many college students and parents. ADT, a major home security company in the US, recently announced 2018’s Safest College Campuses by State. Keene State claims the #1 spot in New Hampshire.

Rankings are based on a variety of factors, including campus size, campus location, and types of crime reported in the school’s town. ADT used data from the FBI and the Campus Safety and Security Survey, an annual US Department of Education analysis, to determine their list of the safest college campuses across the nation.

Keene State’s Campus Safety offers resources and programs for the campus community about everything from fire safety to defensive driving to internet scams. Additional services include blue light phones, an emergency notification system, and a 24-hour personal safety escort available to all community members.
