Providing a safe and secure environment for all members of the
university community is the highest priority of the university`s public
safety staff. The executive director for public safety is responsible
for safety and security services on the New Brunswick/Piscataway
campuses. On the Newark and Camden campuses the police chiefs report to
the Office of the Provost while following policies, procedures, and
administrative practices established by the executive director for
public safety.
Members of the public safety staff patrol each
campus and respond to emergencies and requests for assistance on a
full-time basis, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Rutgers public safety
employees are only part of the university-wide crime prevention team.
All members of the university community also are part of that team. As
a team, it is everyone`s duty to actively maintain a safe environment
and be careful while complying with all local, state, and university
regulations.
Information regarding public safety at Rutgers is
available from the campus police departments. Safety Matters details
public safety statistics, services, and programs on each of Rutgers`
regional campuses. To have a printed copy of Safety Matters mailed
