At Women’s, we view safety and security as a shared responsibility. Residents must act responsibly and respectfully towards their fellow community members, while the College commits a range of resources to ensure safety and security are top priorities.

Women’s has an advanced security system operating at all points of entry, with external doors locked, alarmed and monitored from 10pm. Residents may gain access to the front door until 11pm and external doors at any time with their fob key.

During office hours there are professional staff at the front entrance, with night porters on duty from 4pm to 11pm each evening.  An evening security patrol is shared with Duchesne College.

Women’s is also serviced by the university security bus so that residents can enjoy safe and easy access to UQ libraries and lecture theatres until 11pm during the working week.
