Emergency Call Boxes and Telephones
Click here for a campus map of emergency phones
The Penn State Emergency Phone System is designed to aid in providing security to the University community. It does this by
performing several functions:
- citizens can quickly report emergencies or criminal activity directly to police, even in relatively remote areas.
- visitors to residence areas can phone to be escorted into the building without entering it.
- no money is necessary to use the phones.
Emergency/Courtesy Phones
Often referred to as "call boxes", these phones can be recognized by the blue
light above them. Under the blue light is a phone located inside a "box" with a
standard receiver and keypad. University Police can be reached by dialing 5222.Residence Hall Emergency/Courtesy Phones
These phones are identical in appearance to the "call boxes" described above, but do not have a blue light. These phones
are located in the residence hall areas, usually near the entrances of a residence hall. These phones enable visitors to call a
resident for an escort when the residence hall is secured. These phones are activated the same way as the standard
Emergency/Courtesy Phones described above.
