Virginia Wesleyan believes that a safe, secure environment is essential to learning and to the peace of mind of our students, their parents and our faculty. For this reason, we employ a staff of full-time security officers who patrol the campus by foot, bicycle and vehicle 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Security officers are trained in QPR suicide prevention and are prepared to respond to a student in psychological distress, and connect them to a licensed clinician for further assessment and assistance.
