UCPD's Lt. Tejada holds up a copy of the excellent publication, Safety Counts.
Program the UC Berkeley Emergency number into your cell phone just in case: 510/642-3333.
This number works like 911 from a cell phone on campus, and connects you immediately to UCPD. Use 911 from campus landline phones.

Bear walk and the late night shuttle bus are awesome! I don't have to worry about being mugged on the street when I leave the library late at night.

The Student Learning Center has been the best form of academic assistance I have come across at Berkeley. The study groups that are offered for science classes break down convoluted lecture material into bite-sized and friendly summaries that are organized in clear outlines.

Multicultural Resource Center and Multicultural Student Development are both great student services and can be utilized in collaboration. They are both catalysts of leadership development and are great ways to tap into administrators and off-campus organizations.
