Public Safety Update

It has been brought to our attention that the limited-time parking area off of Anderson Street is possibly being misunderstood and thus misused, causing more citations being issued and in some case, vehicles being towed.  That particular parking area will be strictly enforced and violators will be ticketed and towed.

As always, if you have any information regarding the above incidents or other College safety concerns please contact our department at 243-4357, we have Public Safety Officers available 24/7.
