Campus Safety

Although the Seminary does not maintain its own campus security or law enforcement department, we are committed to providing a safe environment for students. Any crimes, suspicious activity and/or perceived violation of our Institutional Policy and Procedures on Campus Safety and Public Order should be promptly reported to the Campus Safety Officer/Vice Rector, Director of Business Affairs or Academic Dean (see Contacts/Reporting link below). All reports will be promptly and thoroughly investigated. The Campus Safety Officer and/or committee regularly reviews current campus security policies and procedures and makes recommendations for their improvement.
