Preserving the safety and well being of all students, faculty and staff and visitors SUNY Rockland Community College is the professional responsibility of the Office of Public Safety and other administrative departments.  It is also a matter of mutual support, caring and caution by all members of the campus community.  Students, faculty, staff and visitors can do much to aid the work of the Public Safety office and to protect themselves and their property.  We are fortunate at SUNY Rockland that we have experienced very little crime, and we all share in the responsibility of making the learning and working environment safe and enjoyable for everyone.

The Office of Public Safety includes a Director of Public Safety, 12 full time Public Safety Officers and approximately 30 Student Public Safety Assistants.  Campus Public Safety provides continuous patrols of the campus by uniform Public Safety Officers, 24 hours per day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

Campus Public Safety Officers are certified and or qualified in specific areas that concern the college environment.  First Aid, CPR, Emergency Oxygen, Automated External Defibrillation, Emergency Response Procedures, 3-day Undoing Racism Workshop, conflict Management and Crisis Intervention are only some of the skills in which Officers are trained.

The Office of Public Safety is also in compliance with the licensing registration and training requirements of the New York State guard Act and all federal reporting requirements. The Office of Public Safety is located on the 2nd floor of the Field house. Phone: 845-574-4238
