Campus Security officers patrol the campus to assure a high level of physical security. As a regular part of their patrol duties, they look for any safety problems such as defective lighting, inoperative doors or locks, and any other conditions which might detract from one's personal well being. All such conditions can be reported, in writing or by phone, to the Facilities Department at 689-1246 for correction or please call Campus Security at 689-1230.

Your efforts will greatly add to or detract from our efforts to keep criminal activity at the lowest possible level on campus.
