CAMPUS SAFETY
A SHARED RESPONSIBILITY
Your safety and security are of utmost importance to the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs. Numerous
people and resources on the campus and in the Colorado Springs community
are dedicated to providing you with a safe working, learning, and living environment.
You can play a vital part in assuring that the Colorado Springs campus is
a safe place to live and work by being aware of and actively participating
in the University's safety policies and procedures. This information is
provided to you as part of the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs' commitment
to safety and security on campus, and is in compliance with the Crime Awareness
and Campus Security Act of 1990.
The mission of the Department
of Public Safety is to provide police, security, risk management, environmental
safety, transportation, parking
and identification services to the University community. We recognize that our authority comes from the Constitution of the United States, a continually reaffirmed expression of the will of the people, and we are dedicated to upholding its expression of the fundamental value of all people. We view our community and our employees as invaluable assets whose welcome diversity encourages us to strive for a place where their expression and worth can flourish. We do this with the clear understanding that our ultimate responsibility is to enhance and celebrate the University experience. The Department recognizes that specific programs aimed at encouraging community participation will be most successful when fostered within a climate of mutual community trust. This
is most likely to occur as a result of frequent, free, and open contact
among Department members, the public at large, and University community representatives. |
