About Campus Safety and Security

Located in the Service Building, Campus Security is administered by the Director of Campus Security who is responsible to an Associate Dean of Student Development. Campus Security consists of the Director, four full-time officers, four part-time officers, one full-time safety technician, one secretary/dispatcher and approximately 35 student workers. Several officers and the director have full police powers on the Earlham College campus. Campus Security officers are trained in such areas as patrol procedures, emergency response, CPR, first aid, investigation techniques, public relations and other skills.

Campus Security operates 24-hours-a-day, 365 days a year. Security staff communicate closely with maintenance staff concerning the security of campus property, buildings, lighting, key and lock system, and grounds.

All Earlham College buildings and grounds are private property. Campus Security officers, therefore, are authorized to escort trespassers or any unwelcome parties from campus immediately.
