Department of Public Safety

The Department of Public Safety is responsible for law enforcement on campus.  In addition, we are responsible for the Campus Heating Plant, Parking and Traffic Management, and Escort Services.  DPS is located in the Davidson Building, directly south of the ID Weeks Library.  Our office is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Our staff consists of full-time Police Officers and part-time Security staff.  Full-time Police Officers are sworn in as Vermillion City Deputy Police Officers and receive the same training as other City Police Officers.  Each Officer is required to attend the South Dakota Law Enforcement Academy in Pierre, SD. In addition to law enforcement, our officers respond to all medical emergencies on campus.

EMERGENCY INFORMATION

The safety of our students, faculty, and staff is paramount to the University and we have Emergency Procedures in place to ensure the effective management of emergency efforts involved in preparing for and responding to situations associated with emergencies.

Effective January 1, 2009

Information for USD students, faculty and staff, previously located on this site, has moved to myU. Portal>Health&Safety Tab>Your Safety Channel. The revamped portal represents an important milestone in the consolidation and enhancement of value-added content and services for the USD community.
