small Department uh we have slated for
nine officers we have two sergeants
myself a chief we have a full 247
Dispatch Center with six employees and
we have community service officers we're
located on the corner of Armory drive
and Elliot Avenue um there's a building
there on the corner and uh we occupy the
entirety of the building this is the
inside the srjc police department
specifically our Dispatch Center um when
you do call into the Dispatch Center
they're going to ask you a whole bunch
of questions they're going to ask you
you know who are they talking to where
are you they're going to ask you you
know is this an emergency or not and
that's going to prompt how quickly we
get someone coming to you if it's a
non-emergency they're going to get all
the information like if it was a stolen
item you know where was it stolen from
where can we meet you if it is an
emergency they're going to start an
officer towards your location and then
they're going to continue to ask you
more questions we do have dispatchers up
here that are bilingual so depending on
the time of day you may get someone if
you're Spanish speaking and that's where
you're most comfortable in an emergency
that we will be able to speak to in
Spanish if you do not speak English or
Spanish we also have a a language line
we can call and they can help us
translate whatever your language you
need to speak to us in to get us all the
information for the
emergency
okay
okay so we're a fully functioning Police
Department um we have uniform Patrol
we're out there 247 365 days a year um
so when you call our number
77527 1000 you will get police services
uh we also provide escorts um if you
need assistance or if you're just really
not feeling too safe to get from a
classroom to a vehicle to a parking lot
to a classroom we can help you out to
get you where you're going safe we also
have um depending on the semester
anywhere between uh 10 and 15 student
interns there are police Cadets um
they're uh JC students and they're out
there in uniform and Patrol and they
assist us my name is Angelina SE I'm
from Hong Kong and my major is criminal
justice I chose to enroll in this
program because last semester I wanted a
job and international students can only
work on campus and this job seemed
pretty interesting and it was related to
my major so that's why I chose to enroll
in it so our main job is definitely
security around the school and mostly we
do building securing at night but we
also during the day Patrol our own areas
and we also assist students and whatever
they need and we also do escorts battery
jumps a lot of different things but
mainly yeah our job is uh campas
security there's many ways you can
contact The District Police Department
um the easiest way is via your phone
cell phone at
77527 1000 uh we also have emergency
call boxes they're big red boxes with a
blue light on top of it and there's a
button if you push that button uh it
basically establishes a phone connection
and you'll get up with one of our
dispatchers we have the same setup in
our elevators um and you can always uh
walk over to us uh at the corner of
Armory drive and Elliott Avenue and come
see us in person we're available uh
again 24/7 uh for any type of crime that
is occurring or has occurred so if uh
you are at the library and you come back
after using the restroom and you notice
that your laptop is gone well now we
have a theft so that would be
appropriate to give us a call so that we
can send an officer the officer is going
to ask you some questions um if you have
a serial number and the description of
the item that was stolen we're going to
need all that information so that we
could do a report and enter that into
the national system um if it's found uh
then we can get it back to you hi I'm
hie Perez I'm police
officer and my name is Officer Todd
stanus police officer
here there are campus police officers in
most universities and the big reason for
that is because there are is such a very
dense population of people here for
example we have a population of 17,000
people which is the size of a small city
um and that's some of the reasons why
campus law enforcement is necessary
uh students have the right to a safe
educational experience um if they feel
like for whatever reason that uh has
been violated or broken in any way shape
or form uh you can go through um student
discipline located at the brini Student
Center School specific rules or
regulations uh like we are a tobacco and
alcohol free
campus uh we close at 11:00 p.m. so once
11:00 p.m. hits yeah nobody's allowed on
campus so you you need a parking permit
to park on campus uh you can purchase
either a daily one or one for a semester
and you can purchase it at Bailey Hall
so anybody riding a bicycle has to wear
a helmet um and you actually need to you
can't technically ride your bicycle
through campus it has to be done through
Elliot Avenue or Armory drive or mesino
Avenue so we recommend you get a good
quality bike lock um you can get a
really good one starting at like 20
bucks if your bike gets stolen you can
report it to District police uh SE call
707 527 1000 and we'll make a bike theft
report uh there are cameras located
everywhere throughout the junior college
so we can always review surveillance
video uh what I would really recommend
is uh write down your bicycle serial
number that way we could uh if it does
get taken uh we could track it down with
that I think um some important tips to
remember while walking around on campus
is um to always be aware of your
surroundings um to always save our
Police Department phone number in your
phone
77527
1000 um and also always paying attention
to where these emergency towers are they
can always get you directly to the
police dispatch
247 um always lock your cars never leave
um valuables laying out anywhere never
leave your belongings unattended no
matter where you are on game
as an international student I usually
carry my papers around me and I
sometimes have my pocket knife as well
definitely be aware of your surroundings
and like have like some type of like
purp spray or something on you and have
your emergency contact so you can call
someone if you're ever in need of help
the best advice I can give the
international students is that we're a
community oriented Police Department um
all of our officers were former students
of the srjc um they were our Cadets um
they're part of our community and we
want you to feel safe on our campus we
want you to feel safe to call us when
you're in trouble um so please if you
need help give us a call
