In addition to a close association with other campus departments, the Department of Safety and Security works closely with the Berea Police Department, the Berea Fire Department, the Cleveland Metropark Rangers and other area departments to provide the highest level of service to Baldwin-Wallace College and the entire community. The Department of Safety and Security maintains a student auxiliary staff of approximately twenty-five. This staff includes student auxiliaries who assist in patrolling the campus grounds and providing escorts, as well as student dispatchers who relay requests for service, and monitor the actions of officers as they patrol the campus. Senior Student Auxiliaries assist with the training and supervision of their coworkers. Any student interested in employment with the Department is encouraged to stop by the office and request an application at any time during the year.
All students are welcome to apply regardless of their major or career interest.
For non-emergency service, the department can be contacted at 2336. A courteous dispatcher will always be on duty to answer your call and to dispatch an officer to your location. Emergency telephones are located in the Recreation Center parking lot, in the Fairgrounds parking lot, at the top of the outside stairs near Merner-Pfeiffer, between Carnegie and Wheeler Halls, the northwest corner of Bonds, by the exterior elevator of the Student Activities Center, and between Dietsch and Klein Halls. These phones dial directly to the Department of Safety and Security. Additional locations are currently being considered for additional phones.
