Shuttle Rides for Injuries or Medical Conditions

If a community member contacts Public Safety to request an escort to another part of campus, every reasonable effort shall be made to get the community member picked up and dropped off to their destination in a timely manner, and as close to the location as possible.

If you are anticipating making regular requests for unique pick-up or drop-off locations as you recover from an illness or injury, please reach out first to Director of Public Safety Mike Hill (mhill1@swarthmore.edu). Public Safety will try to meet requests, but the ability to do so is based on staffing, vehicle availability and additional constraints. Please plan accordingly and understand there may be time delays due to other incidents, weather, or emergencies occurring on campus.

Contact the Public Safety Communications Center: commcenter@swarthmore.edu, 610-328-8281
