Safety and Security

The Office of Campus Safety and Security is a support service, charged with enforcing Heidelberg University policies and regulations while maintaining a safe and secure environment for the campus community. The office is staffed with a full-time Director of Campus Safety & Security, three full-time Security Officers, one part-time Security Officer and Heidelberg University student officers.

The Office of Campus Safety and Security is staffed 24-hours a day seven days a week all year round and has a close working relationship with the Tiffin Police and Tiffin Fire & Rescue Division.

Campus Security Officers are not police officers and do not maintain legal authority to arrest individuals.

The university encourages anyone who believes a crime or violation of university policy has occurred to report it to either the Tiffin Police Department or Campus Security.

The office's responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

•  Securing campus buildings and facilities
•  Responding to any emergency on campus
•  Responding to and investigate any campus fire alarm
•  Registration of student, faculty and staff member parking permits
•  Enforcement of campus parking regulations
•  Providing student, faculty/staff escorts on campus
