While the University Police Division is responsible for providing protective services to safeguard institution facilities and assets, each individual department and employee is also directly responsible for taking reasonable care and precautions with those facilities and assets assigned to them. The University Police Division is limited in its efforts by the availability of staff and the number of demands for services other than security. Security is everybody's business. The crime rate on campus can be significantly reduced if each person takes the time to secure personal and University property properly, to lock rooms and buildings when leaving, always to lock their vehicle and take the keys, to observe and report suspicious persons or activities, and never to leave valuables unattended or unsecured.
Cooperation is necessary for the successful prevention of crime.
A Crime Prevention Specialist is available to address departmental, group, or other on-campus needs for security information, presentations, or material. Should any department or employee identify a security risk, the University Police Division will be pleased to receive the information and to provide assistance as necessary to resolve the situation. For such assistance, call Public Safety, 325-2864. To request these services, call Public Safety, 325-2864. There is no charge to client departments for monitoring or response to alarm systems.
