We strive to achieve this goal through mutual cooperation with the campus community and by maintaining excellent working relationships with local police, fire, and emergency medical services. The department is staffed twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. Officers are licensed with the New York State Department of Justice and undergo initial training as well as periodic training throughout the year. The officers meet all the requirements of the New York Security Guard Act of 1992. They are certified in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation for the Professional rescuer and Basic First Aid.
Officers serve as first responders to medical emergencies and criminal activities.
We are first and foremost a service organization that provides a number of services to students, faculty, staff and visitors. The department also provides lockout services to students, faculty, and staff members who have accidently locked themselves out of offices, classrooms or dorm rooms. This is provided as a courtesy and officers will respond when they become available.
