St. ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ is dedicated to creating and promoting a safe, secure, and peaceful environment on the Minneapolis campus. The Minneapolis campus is part of a vibrant downtown ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½. We want to be welcoming to all, and at the same time, provide a secure setting for our students, faculty, staff, and visitors.
