Department
Nazareth places a high priority on the personal safety of all students, faculty, staff, and visitors. The Department of Campus Safety is dedicated to providing a safe and secure campus environment through the delivery of quality security services and prevention programs. For a majority of students this may mark the first time that they have lived away from home. Along with this new freedom comes a responsibility for students to be conscious of their own personal safety by learning and practicing basic safety and security precautions. By working together with the campus community, the Department of Campus Safety helps make Nazareth College a safer place to live and learn.

The Campus Safety Department is available 24-hours-a-day. All uniformed officers are registered in accordance with the New York State Security Guard Act and provide bicycle, foot, and vehicle patrols of the entire campus. All officers are trained in crisis intervention, emergency response procedures, fire safety, first aid, CPR, and Automated External Defibrillator (AED) use.

Services
The Campus Safety Department provides many services. Some of these include: a personal property (Operation ID) and bicycle identification program; motorist assistance to jump start vehicles and retrieve keys locked inside of vehicles; programs on fire safety, personal safety, and sexual assault prevention; twenty-six blue-light courtesy phones located throughout the campus; campus escort service; Individual emergency radio transmitters provided free of charge upon request; Card access for all residence halls.
