If you have not done so already, please take a few minutes now to register or update your contact information. All information is secure and confidential.
Students: Access Penn InTouch via Penn Portal at www.upenn.edu/penn_portal
Faculty/Staff: Access the Penn Directories via, www.upenn.edu/directories
• Blue Light Phones: If you observe a potential safety hazard, need a walking escort, or require Penn Police assistance, contact the Division of Public Safety from one of more than over 300 blue-light phones on campus and in the surrounding community. Just pick up the receiver or press the button.
• PennGuardian: This service allows PennComm, the DPS emergency communications center, to identify your GPS coordinates when you call from a cell phone that you have registered with Penn Guardian. Penn Guardian is available to you as a member of the Penn community. To activate this service, you must sign up and register your cell phone number at www.publicsafety.upenn.edu/getpennguardian Once your cell phone number has been registered, a dispatcher will be able to view the profile information that you have entered when you call the DPS emergency number—(215) 573-3333.
