Due to increased reports of students walking across University Avenue, the University
Police Department reminds students they must use the pedestrian tunnel to cross University
Avenue. The tunnel is located by the Pennington Activity Center and provides a safe
passage across the busy avenue. Crossing a roadway without a marked crosswalk is dangerous
and unlawful. Accordingly, University Police may issue citations to any student found
doing so.
To promote student safety, we urge you to LION UP when walking on campus and remember toonly cross streets at designated crosswalks:
Look both ways before crossing at crosswalks
Initiate eye contact with drivers entering roadways
Obey traffic rules, signs, and signals
Never assume a driver will give you the right of way
Use the pedestrian tunnel when crossing University Ave
Put down your phone and remove headphones to be alert of surroundings.
