Campus safety is our priority.

The Department of Public Safety (DPS) at ÖÐÎÄ×ÖÄ» is dedicated to keeping our campus safe. We offer educational and awareness programs on crime prevention and emergency response for students, faculty, and staff. We also continually make safety enhancements to campus grounds and develop precautionary measures that touch every aspect of campus life.

Dawg Ride, our on-campus transportation service, operates 7 days a week, during the academic year. Safety transportation escorts also are offered from dusk to dawn, and outdoor emergency call boxes allow immediate access to a uniformed police officer.
