How you can help:

Mail Services suggests several ways UCSD employees can help the effort to guard against suspicious mail.

• Do not hand-deliver mail to Mail Services vehicles or delivery personnel.
• Address all outbound mail properly, with a full return address that includes name, department, and mail code.

If you receive a suspicious-looking package, call University Police at (858) 534-4357 and follow these guidelines:

1. Do not open the package.
2. Isolate the package and evacuate the immediate area.
3. Do not put the package in water or a confined space such as a drawer or filing cabinet.
4. If possible, open windows in the immediate area to help vent potential explosive gases.
5. Do not hesitate to call University Police immediately. Do not worry about potential embarrassment. Your concern could save lives.

If you have questions or concerns, call either University Police, (858) 534-4357, or Jorge Espinoza, Mail Services, (858) 534-1164.
