Be Safe, Texas is a public awareness campaign designed to give The University of Texas at Austin community a no-nonsense safety resource. Our goal is to let you know about four basic Web links that can help keep you safe, and provide you with resources to stay informed and take action about your safety. Be Safe, Texas is possible thanks to a partnership between Student Government and the Division of Housing and Food Service, Campus Safety and Security, Office of the Dean of Students, and Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs.
