Studies reveal that the majority of thefts on university campuses are crimes of opportunity, which occur because belongings were left unattended in unsecured areas. By simply securing your belongings and ensuring that they are not left unattended, you can limit being victimized.
With this in mind, the "Secure It, Keep It" campaign will focus in the coming weeks on building awareness throughout our campuses utilizing print and electronic media to remind everyone to secure their belongings. We hope that you will do your part to "Secure It, Keep It."
Sincerely,
Ricardo Romo
President,
The University of Texas at San Antonio
