The OCM is located on the first floor of the Administration Building in Room 101A, next to the University Chapel. This is a special initiative funded by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Minority Health. The Center offers after school and summer violence prevention programs for youth in which Xavier students serve as mentors and tutors to participants. Students must understand that personal safety and security begin with the individual. The Campus Police Office is open 24 hours per day and serves as the information center to visitors entering the campus.
Officers patrol the campus on a regular schedule by foot, bicycle, and vehicles.
Officers also serve as crime prevention practitioners by re-enforcing safety and security information to Xavier s students, faculty, and staff. The Office of Campus Police offers several crime prevention and safety awareness programs throughout the year. The Office of Campus Police is a sponsor of a nationally accredited crime prevention program, Rape Aggression Defense for Women, and has two certified instructors on staff. Self-discipline is the aim of the University in its policies on student conduct. Xavier University assumes that it is a community of mature people.
