The Nevada System of Higher Education has a new message: “Know the signs. Make the call.”

Students, faculty and staff are encouraged to recognize warning signs, report concerning behavior and help prevent potential risks before they escalate.

A new campus safety campaign is set to roll out across Nevada’s public higher education system.

New campaign connects campus communities with trained teams prepared to assess and respond to concerns.

The system overseeing all of Nevada's public colleges and universities is launching a new campus safety campaign.

Many more students are using electric scooters to get around campus, and to see if they can enhance pedestrian traffic and safety, UNLV rolled out the “Rebel Route” pilot program in late August.

In honor of National Donate Life Month, the Nevada Donor Network partnered with the University Police Department (UPD) for the "Dogs, Donuts & Donate Life" event. The Donor Network says more than 100,000 people in the U.S. are waiting for a life-saving transplant, including nearly 700 in Nevada.

UNLV turned its student union plaza into a push to save lives as Nevada faces a need for organ donors. University police and Nevada Donor Network hosted “Dogs, Donuts and Donate Life,” using K9 meet-and-greets and free donuts to get students and staff to stop by, learn about donation, and sign up on the spot.

Amid a rise in fatal crashes and overall poor driving, the University Police Department is launching a new unit dedicated to holding bad drivers accountable. The department, which provides police services for schools, including the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and the College of Southern Nevada, launched the unit last week.

As turkeys take center stage on tables up and down the country, they are also playing an important role on the streets of Las Vegas this holiday season. A unique demonstration, ran near Cashman Middle School, sees an office don a turkey costume before stepping into the crossroad to see which drivers yield, particularly during the busy holiday season. Officers from the Clark County School District Police, Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, Henderson Police Department, North Las Vegas Police Department, and UNLV Police Department joined forces for the event.

Officers across the Las Vegas valley handed out the kind of holiday “stuffing” no driver wants. Police used a giant turkey mascot to enforce crosswalk laws. The operation took place near 4622 West Desert Inn Road, just east of Decatur Boulevard outside James Cashman Middle School. Officers from CCSD Police, LVMPD Traffic, North Las Vegas Police, Henderson Police, and UNLV Police took part in the effort. In just a few hours, officers conducted 145 traffic stops and issued 109 citations to drivers who failed to yield to the oversized turkey in the crosswalk. One vehicle was also towed.

A rise in homeless encampments in the south central part of Clark County near Flamingo and Maryland Parkway has prompted Commissioner Tick Segerblom to team up with local agencies such as Las Vegas Metro Police, UNLV Police, the Regional Flood Control District and HELP of Southern Nevada to partner up to better help and address growing concerns throughout the nearby community.
