After answering the questions/evaluation I scored in the 80-89 range. Therefore, the evaluations recommends that I should reexamine some of my habits and make changes to improve my safety. Evaluating my questions, there are a couple areas I could overall improve on. These two areas are auto safety and public transportation.

Finally, while I am riding the bus or any form of public transportation, I need to do a better job of being aware and alert of who and what is going on while riding.
The next part of the portfolio and critical thinking questions asks me of my perception of the safety on my college campus. Personally, I have felt safe, and I have not encountered a threatening or a situation that may put me in danger or at risk. However, my overall perception of the campus and it’s safety is that there are areas it needs to improve on for the students’ safety. This perception is because of the crime alert emails students get. These emails usually have a message about someone being sexually
