Police Operations

The Patrol Unit is at the core of the University Police Department when executing the fundamental community-policing values and philosophies expected of its 28 sworn officers. Providing a multi-dimensional and directed patrol approach to the law enforcement services they provide ensures a consistent proactive approach in meeting the community's expectations of excellent public service. The division functions primarily utilizing four, 12-hour shifts, providing continuous patrol of the University and surrounding community 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Uniformed police utilized proactive multi-dimensional patrol techniques through the use of police cars, motorcycles, T3 electric vehicles, bicycles, and foot patrols. Directed patrol plans are integrated into this approach by shift supervisors on a  daily basis, using crime analysis and other data to impact problem areas on the around campus.
