Public Safety Officers respond to many calls for service and we communicate our activities to the college community. 

During the school year, Public Safety will publish an article in The Clarion informing the college community of recent events and notable calls that Public Safety has responded to. 

We welcome everyone to stop by the office and introduce themselves and we hope you all have a successful school year.  Here are some quick facts about Public Safety.

Public Safety has Patrol Officers available 24 hours a day, 365 days per year.  The Public Safety Office, Room B1240, is staffed Monday through Friday from 6:30 a.m. to 10 p.m.  You can reach us by stopping by the window or dialing 246-6932 (non-emergency) or 245-2222 (emergency/after hours). Be aware that after hours, the Wisconsin State Capitol Police dispatches for Public Safety. 

We are currently accepting applications for Student Help Patrol Officers, stop by the office to pick up an application.

Students are no longer required to display a physical parking permit.  Students are required to register their vehicles on the Madison College website.  Simply type “Parking” in the search tab of the Madison College website, and click “Student Vehicle Registration.”

Public Safety has Jump Packs available to jump start your car in the event your battery dies at no charge, we only require a photo i.d. and you must be the registered owner of the vehicle, or the son or daughter of the registered owner of the vehicle.

Public Safety can unlock your vehicle if you lock your keys in your car, we again require a photo i.d. and you must be the registered owner of the vehicle, or be the son or daughter of the registered owner of the vehicle.

Public Safety offers escorts to your vehicle if you do not feel comfortable walking to your car.  Just stop by the officer or give us a call!
