University Law Enforcement Policies<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Community safety is the primary responsibility of the University Police Department<\/a>, administered by its Chief of Police who reports to the Vice President for Student Development and Campus Life. In addition to the Chief, the department is staffed by commissioned police officers and dispatch officers.<\/p>\n

The department is staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Information and emergency telephone numbers are posted and published throughout campus. Officers at headquarters are in direct radio communication with officers on patrol. Patrols of the campus are made by police officers in highly visible police vehicles.<\/p>\n

University police officers are trained and commissioned in accordance with NJSA 18A:6-4.2-4. University police officers complete 26-week training at the police academy approved by the State of New Jersey Police Training Commission and which is the same as required for municipal police officers. University police officers have complete authority to apprehend and arrest anyone involved in illegal acts on campus and enforce all New Jersey Motor Vehicle laws. All personnel receive additional in-service instruction through qualified sources throughout the state. This includes cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and first aid, as well as other relevant service skills.<\/p>\n

The department has been assigned an identification number by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and submits monthly reports of all criminal incidents under its jurisdiction to the New Jersey State Police. These reports are forwarded to the FBI and compiled into the Uniform Crime Report (UCR). The department works closely with local police and fire departments in the Township of Little Falls, Township of Montclair, Township of Bloomfield and City of Clifton, the New Jersey State Police and other law enforcement agencies. The department is equipped with the State Police Emergency Network (SPEN), affording immediate communication with neighboring law enforcement agencies. The Department also maintains a written daily crime log listing all crimes that occurred on campus, in University\u2019s residence halls, off-campus and on public property.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Crime Prevention<\/h2>\n

The 精品成人福利在线 University campus is an open one. There are no protective boundaries that separate it from surrounding communities and highways. Although the University police officers are highly visible in providing for the safety and welfare of the university community, there are precautions that everyone should take to avoid becoming a potential target of crime. For example, traveling alone after peak class hours to perimeter areas of the campus (such as distant parking lots or undeveloped portions of the campus) is not a safe practice. For this reason, we encourage students and employees to walk with a friend or in a group or to take the campus shuttle bus. The department provides a number of services to help prevent crime that include the following:<\/p>\n
