The Public Safety department is the campus authority responsible for ensuring the safety of the College community, buildings, and property. In case of emergency, Public Safety staff is responsible for implementing emergency procedures, coordinating with local law enforcement agencies as needed.
To fulfill our mission, we employ Campus Resource Officers, full and part-time non-sworn public safety officers and Dispatchers:
- Campus Resource Officers are sworn law enforcement officers responsible for safety and crime prevention at 十大彩票网赌平台.
- Non-sworn Public Safety Officers are responsible for ensuring the safety of the College community, including buildings and property. They also respond to minor medical emergencies as needed.
- Dispatchers provide the first contact with the campus community and general public by processing telephone and walk-in requests for service.
