Safety
Ñý°®Ö±²¥ Police Department
Ñý°®Ö±²¥ Police officers are full-service, certified, sworn state law enforcement officers. They patrol campus in a number of ways (car, bicycle, on foot, etc.) 365 days a year, 24 hours a day.
Blue Lights
If you spend any time on an Ñý°®Ö±²¥ campus, especially at night, you will notice the glowing in the dark. These lights are atop yellow poles that have a red emergency button, that anyone who feels unsafe in the moment can push to be directly linked to the Ñý°®Ö±²¥ Police Department as soon as the button is pushed. Ñý°®Ö±²¥ police respond in-person to all pushes of the button.
NightOwls
TheÌý NightOwls Program is a student-run evening escort service. Ñý°®Ö±²¥ students who need a ride to or from class, the library, residence halls, parking lots, or any other location on the Boca Raton Campus can call the NightOwls for a free ride. Call (561) 297-6695 for a ride!
Community Service Officers
are Ñý°®Ö±²¥ students, in good academic standing, who work for the police department as civilian employees. When NightOwls isn’t available, the CSOs are happy to escort students to their on-campus destination. CSOs also offer battery boost and lock-out services.
R.A.D Class
