Getting Around Campus
Registering your bike is free and allows Public Safety and the New York Police Department (NYPD) a better chance at recovering it if it’s stolen or lost.
Commuter parking bicycle enclosures provide security and weather protection, and they also house bike tire pumps and basic repair tools.
Campus safety escorts are available through the Public Safety office. A valid Columbia ID card is required.
