Campus Safety Officers

²ÝݮӰÊÓ Campus Safety Officers are active and former career law enforcement personnel from local police agencies. They patrol the campus 24 hours each day, 365 days per year, have the authority to stop, detain, and question anyone suspected of committing a criminal offense on campus. Because they are law enforcement professionals, our Campus Safety officers have power of arrest and they are armed. Campus Safety officers enforce all rules and regulations of the institution.

Thanks to their law enforcement training and background, ²ÝݮӰÊÓ Campus Safety officers have a close working relationship with state and local Chicago law enforcement agencies, especially Chicago’s 17th Police District. These agencies are responsive to ²ÝݮӰÊÓ’s security needs and readily provide additional support when requested. Many of our officers are assigned to the local jurisdiction and are, on a daily basis, aware of any criminal activity in the area and of the actions of the local police. The local police commander takes an active interest in our campus and meets annually with administrators and the director of security to discuss security issues of mutual concern. We are fortunate to able to coordinate our efforts with the Chicago Police Department.

In the case of a criminal incident, Campus Safety personnel will:

• Respond to the incident as required
• Investigate the incident and prepare a ²ÝݮӰÊÓ Security Incident Report
• Contact the local police agency and have an official police report prepared
• Summon additional support from the local police agency if needed
• Contact the local police agency for support in any follow-up investigation
