    Excessive noise and other livability issues can be a challenge when college students are your neighbors. These proactive steps can help you deal with these realities more effectively:

    1. Get contact information for at least two people at the homes of your student neighbors.
    2. Use Ramsey County records to determine who the landlord is – and get acquainted with that person, too.
    3. If the property is owned by an LLC (limited liability company), search the business filings through the Secretary of State’s office.

    Who to Call

    Inform the University of St. Thomas about any problems with its students:
    • Call Public Safety, 651-962-5100, a 24-hour number. Although Public Safety has no legal jurisdiction in the neighborhood, officers can drive by and document the event, and their presence often encourages loiterers to move along.
    • Call SPPD. Dial either 911 (emergency) or 651-291-1111 (non-emergency). The complaint will get to the same communications center. Report the exact address of where the disturbance is occurring or the nearest cross streets of where you see trouble.
    • Email details to the neighborhood relations office at neighbors@stthomas.edu.
