Safety and Security
Mission Statement
It is the mission of the Department of Safety and
Security to provide campus security services which enhance and support the
Strategic Plan of Shoreline Community College. (Our goal is to promote a safe
and welcoming environment that recognizes, and is respectful of diversity, and
to improve the quality of campus life for students, and faculty and staff,
learning and working at Shoreline Community College by working in partnership
with the campus community to provide the most professional, effective campus
safety services possible.) All of this must be done in a learning
environment and a physical climate that support excellence.
Shoreline Community College is a community unto itself. All members of the
community – students, faculty and staff – contribute to making Shoreline a safe,
nurturing environment for learning. As much as we might like, we cannot isolate
ourselves from the world that surrounds our campus. The Shoreline neighborhood
that surrounds our campus is one of the safest in the City of Shoreline. Yet,
like any place in our modern times, there are dangers. For this reason the
Department of Campus Safety and Security is committed to ensuring the safety of
students, employees, and visitors through effective policies and procedures,
educational programming, and community involvement.
There are four main aspects to our goals:
 |
Safe and secure: To create an environment conducive to learning by
providing continual patrol coverage, complete case investigation and daily
inspection of security systems and equipment. To engage in campus crime
prevention and public education activities. To provide an operational Safety
and Security Department whose primary function is to serve and protect the
campus community. |
|
|
Crime prevention: To provide educational programs to the campus,
which cultivate safety and security awareness. Implement a philosophy of
community oriented problem solving in which security officers, students, and
faculty and staff are equal partners in the crime prevention, and quality of
life efforts. |
|
|
Parking: To administer parking program, which accommodates the daily
and special event, needs of the campus. To maintain a revenue flow which
assures the maintenance of existing parking, develops additional parking and
provides for alternate forms of campus community transportation. Provide
efficient and courteous services to the public and campus community,
including traffic movement, resolution of non-criminal disputes, and
emergency assistance as needed. |
|
|
Work Place Safety: To create a perception of individual
responsibility for day-to-day work activities. The use of meetings, reports,
programs and recognition of employees will cultivate safe working habits. |
