Public Safety (Overview and “Blue Light” Call Boxes)
The Public Safety Department is staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Its 32 employees utilize foot, bicycle, and vehicle patrols to observe and report situations or activities which may pose a danger to persons or property.
PUBLIC SAFETY OFFICERS ARE UNARMED AND DO NOT HAVE POLICE POWERS.
Public Safety Officers respond to all complaints as promptly as possible and, if the Officer or complainant requires local police assistance, Public Safety notifies the Mahwah Police Department. (There is a direct hotline to the Mahwah Police Department in the Public Safety Office.) Public Safety Officers have received First Aid and CPR training in addition to instruction in campus public safety procedures. The College enjoys an excellent working relationship with the Mahwah Police Department. Response to requests for assistance is very prompt.

You may want to consider adding an ICE contact on their mobile phone. ICE, an acronym for “In Case of Emergency”, is entered into a mobile phone user’s address/contact book as the “In Case of Emergency” contact. ICE allows paramedics or police to be able to contact a designated relative/next-of-kin in an emergency situation.
