Be Safe Cougs

Blue Light Special

If you are on the Pullman campus and ever find yourself needing immediate help, just look for a blue light. WSU has over 30 emergency blue light phones installed around campus. Pressing the emergency phone button will connect you to an operator at the Whitcom 911 Communications Center. A police officer responds to every call. When walking around campus, be aware of the blue light buttons so that you will be able to find one quickly in an emergency situation.

Full map of the blue lights on campus.

For more safety information, contact Environmental Health and Safety at ehs@wsu.edu.
