Rave Guardian
The free Rave Guardian mobile app brings campus safety and peace of mind together into a single app鈥攖urning your phone into a personal security device on and off campus. Through the app, students, faculty and staff can invite family and friends to your safety network, report suspicious activity, and connect immediately (and anonymously, if you wish) with the CSU Police Department.

Register your Rave Guardian profile by entering your cell phone number. You will receive a verification code via text at that number, which you will copy in the Rave Guardian app to verify your account. If this number is the same number you use for Cougar Alert, the app will ask to confirm your information. If the number you entered is not, the app will prompt you to enter your university email address. Rave Guardian will then send a verification code to your CSU email address. After entering that in the Rave Guardian app, select "色情导航," verify it's you, and you're all set.
