Keeping Our Community Safe

Campus Safety officers are responsible for:

  • maintaining order and safety both within campus buildings and throughout the campus grounds
  • providing protection from theft, misuse, and vandalism for personal and campus property
  • enforcing the University's safety rules and regulations

Officers conduct themselves with the highest degree of professionalism, and are committed to maintaining good campus and community relations.

Emergency Management Plan

Students, faculty, and staff are encouraged to report criminal incidents and other emergencies immediately to the Office of Campus Safety.

To reach Campus Safety from On Campus:
Dial 3046 or 611

To reach Campus Safety from off campus/cell phone:
Dial 315-792-3046

To report a life-threatening emergency:
Dial 911 from any phone on campus and then call Campus Safety at 3046.

**Remember to state your location on campus. The 911 system cannot trace your call through our telephone system. **

Emergency Telephones

Courtesy phones are located at most of the entrances to campus buildings. These phones are yellow and have a direct call button to reach campus safety. These phones can also be used to call students living in residential halls, to alert them that their guests have arrived.

In addition to courtesy phones, the college campus is equipped with several Blue Lights. These Blue light call boxes have a button that can be pressed, in emergencies, to request immediate assistance from campus safety. Once the button has been pushed, Campus safety is notified and a blue light illuminates from the top of the call box, signaling the location where assistance is needed.
