Services

Campus Safety provides the College with a wide array of services. These include a campus escort service, lost and found, security lockers, support for sponsored campus events, and room lockout services.

Lost and Found

There is a campus Lost and Found program managed through the Dept. of Campus Safety. Students, faculty and staff can submit a lost property report by emailing Campus Safety with the subject line 'Lost and Found' and including the following information: Name, contact information, description of item (size, brand, model, color), date lost, and location lost if known; or call Campus Safety at x8809 to report any lost or missing items. Anyone finding clothing, keys, books, jewelry, wallets, electronics, sports equipment or other items on campus should bring these found items immediately to the Campus Safety Department. Lost and Found items will be held for 30 days. The Campus Safety Department understands the impact of losing personal belongings and is committed to ensuring that every effort is made to return lost and found items to the owners as quickly as possible. With your help, we can make Lost and Found work for everyone!
