Troy University implements new app for safety and security
In an effort to help students feel safe and secure, as well as prevent campus crime, Troy University campus police have deployed Omnilert, which gives students the ability to speak or chat with an on-campus police officer directly. Troy University is a public, four-year university in Alabama with more than 13,000 students.
University police are encouraging students to download the free app. In addition to messaging authorities, students can also tap a red button within “Omnilert” if they feel threatened or need help.
