Campus Safety

Campus Safety

The Union College Campus Safety (UCCS) Department is the College's authorized security force tasked with enforcing its rules, regulations and policies. Enforcement procedures include issuing parking tickets and summary fines, filing conduct charges, performing citizen's arrests and providing vehicle registration and ID card services.

UCCS works closely with federal, state, county and local authorities in the investigation and prosecution of crimes and in fire, safety and health-related issues. By leveraging innovative engagement, problem-solving strategies, community partnerships, and evolving technology, UCCS has significantly reduced crime, creating a safer environment for living and learning

Our approach involves extensive lighting evaluations and enhancements, upgrades to physical security—such as the deployment of over 130 security cameras and 35 Code Blue Emergency Phones—and the integration of Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) principles in both new and existing buildings. These initiatives, along with a variety of safety and security programs and services, have contributed to a significant reduction in campus crime.

Our Mission:

UCCS supports the College's mission by serving as a dedicated partner in fostering a safe and secure environment, while enhancing the quality of life for everyone who lives, learns, works and visits within our community.
