Media Releases

The MU Police Department is committed to keeping the community and members of the news media informed about public safety at MU.  

For information, contact the MU News Bureau at 573-882-6211 or email MUNewsBureau@missouri.edu.

During a campus emergency, do not call MUPD.  Instead, check for updates on the MU Alert and MU News Bureau websites. These are the only official resources of information for the public and news media during an emergency.  Once an all clear is issued, a university spokesperson can assist with questions.
