Department of Safety
and Security
The College of Saint Rose is concerned
about the safety of all members of the campus community, guests
and visitors. Several policies and procedures are designed to ensure
a safe and secure environment. Presentations are made throughout
the year as part of the College's Crime Prevention Program. The
Crime Prevention Program is based upon the concept that all those
in the campus community should be provided with the tools they need
to be responsible for their own security and the security of others.
The Campus Security office is located at the entrance to Lima Hall
at 366 Western Avenue and can be contacted from off-campus by dialing
454-5187 or from anywhere on-campus
by dialing extension 5187,
or *25 from
any campus pay phone.
Escort Service
Security officers provide campus escorts 24 hours-a-day, seven days-a-week
to students and staff upon request. Members of the campus community
may also contact Campus Security from off-campus to arrange for
an escort when they arrive at the College.
Emergency Blue Light Phone System
These phones are located on campus walkways and in parking lots.
They can be used to contact Campus Security
in an emergency situation or to request a security escort.
Whistle Watch Program
The Saint Rose Student Association sponsors this program in cooperation
with Campus Security and the Albany Police Department. Whistles
are available free of charge to all members of the Saint Rose community.

staff and students who examine policy and procedures and make recommendations
to maintain the safest environment possible.
