Campus Safety

The NMHU Police/Security Department is a full-service police agency, open 24 hours daily, during which time the administrative assistant or a dispatcher/telephone operator is available to provide assistance. It is not simply a security force; rather, it is similar to a municipal police department for a small city, serving to ensure the safety of the campus' students, faculty and staff. NMHU police officers have enforcement authority on all property controlled by the NMHU Board of Regents. To accomplish this, NMHU police officers rely on and have a good working relationship with all surrounding police agencies - federal, state, county and city.
