Courtesy Rides  Campus Safety officers provide rides (pending cruiser availability) when a student cannot drive because of illness or injury or when a student requests a ride on campus at night.

 Facilities Access  To meet individualized educational needs, Campus safety officers provide student access to New England College facilities with approval by appropriate staff or faculty members.

Student Identification Cards  The Department of Campus Safety provides student, faculty, and staff identification cards at the Campus safety Bldg.  There is no cost for the original ID card; lost or mislaid ID cards are replaced for a $25.00 fee.  Students are advised to be in constant possession of their ID card during the school year. It is the students’ only form of college identification and is used for access to Gilmore Dining Hall, the Danforth Library, student discounts, and other New England College activities.

Lost and Found The College’s primary lost-and-found agency is the Department of Campus Safety.  Articles held at the Department of Campus Safety are stored for a semester. Unclaimed items will be regarded as abandoned after a semester and be disposed of at the discretion of the Director of Campus Safety. This policy also includes bicycles.

Operation ID  Each semester, the Department of Campus Safety provides incoming students with an identification form to register the serial numbers of valuable personal property (TVs, VCRs, computers, stereos, etc.).    The completed card is retained by the Department of Campus Safety where it will be logged and filed.  If a registered item is stolen and recovered, the information contained in the pamphlet will aid in its return. Students are strongly urged to participate in "Operation ID".

Investigations  The department of Campus safety provides investigative services of college policy violations to assist the associate director of Student Services in judicial matters.

Parking Decals  The Department of Campus Safety issues parking decals and maintains all vehicle records. Parking decals are required for all vehicles on campus.  The decals address several groups of college participants:  freshmen (who are allowed to have vehicles on campus), commuter students, upper- class students, faculty and staff, and Gilmore Dining Hall staff.  Freshmen are charged $50.00 per decal and upper-class students are charged $60.00 per decal.  There is no charge for faculty and staff and Gilmore staff.

Parking Enforcement  The Department of Campus Safety is responsible for traffic enforcement on college property. Parking fines are based on the seriousness of the violation, which range from $20. up to termination of campus parking privileges.  Students have the right of appeal of tickets to an independent review board.

Fingerprinting Services  The Department of Campus Safety will provide at no charge a fingerprinting service for student teachers and students going into the community on college-related work programs.  Fingerprints may be obtained, by appointment, at the Campus Safety Bldg.

Event Security  The Department of Campus Safety will provide event security for the numerous social and political events hosted at New England College.  Safety officers work with event planners and college officials to coordinate traffic control and building security for the event.  When the need arises, Safety officers will act as college liaison with local, state, and federal officials conducting the event.

Emergency Telephone Services New England College strongly encourages the reporting of crimes, accidents, incidents and emergencies.  The College is fully integrated into the state 9-1-1 emergency contact system. Campus Safety has the added capability of identifying 9-1-1 from campus phones with a dedicated 9-1-1 telephone that will identify the caller and the locations of the call.  Also, direct access to Campus Safety can be made by using 10 emergency telephones located throughout the campus.

Campus Safety Hot Line  The New England College hotline – SEND (7363) – is a phone service on campus designed for students, staff, and faculty to pass on information about incidents and behaviors in an anonymous fashion: this designated telephone line has no provisions for tracing calls, thus preserving the caller’s identity.  All calls are reviewed in a timely fashion by a designated Campus Safety employee.  Callers, at their discretion, may leave their name if they so choose, or may ask to speak with a member of Campus Safety.  Please note that this system is not intended for emergency issues that require immediate response.
