Campus Safety
The UNCSA Police Department employs 14 professionally trained police officers that meet the standards set forth by the Criminal Justice and Standards Division of the state of North Carolina under General Statute 17C. These officers have the authority to enforce federal, state and local laws, as well as the rules and regulations of the University of North Carolina. Our police jurisdiction includes all UNCSA owned or leased property, that portion of any public road passing through the campus, and that portion of any public road immediately adjoining the campus (Cf. General Statute 116-40.5).
Police officers routinely engage in crime prevention, security surveys, safety escorts, and other public safety functions. In the event additional security is needed, UNCSA Police contract with private security to augment our own officers. When on campus, private security officers work under the direction of UNCSA police officers.
