IV also happens to literally be across the street from the Boston Police (it’s located at 1 Schroeder Plaza, Boston, MA 02120). That sounds rather safe to me…

Virtually all my campus tours have been led by girls, and virtually all of them have said they don’t know anyone who has used one of those blue lights, and that they themselves had never had an occasion to use one. I don’t know that those lights keep you safer than carrying your cell phone on you at all times.

I’m only a prospective student, but I’ve researched campus safety a LOT, and I am an overly cautious person (a.k.a. girl with a history of sexual harassment). But I am hoping to attend Northeastern and live in IV next year and I find it to be safe, or as safe as city schools come! I’ll shut up and let the school speak for itself now… [Public Safety](Home - Northeastern University's Police Department)
