Public Safety and Police
Thanks to our dedicated Public Safety and Police Department, the Endicott College campus community is as safe as it is beautiful.
About the Department
The Public Safety and Police Department is comprised of approximately 30 full-time and part-time personnel, 20 of which are sworn police officers. The department is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. You can contact us at any time by telephone at (978) 232-2222.
Our police officers have attended a Massachusetts state certified police academy or its equivalent as well as annual in-service training programs. Upon completion of a police academy, Endicott police officers have full law enforcement and arrest authority as special state police officers under Massachusetts General Law Chapter 22c section 63, in or upon the lands and structures owned, used, or occupied by the College. Police officers are also commissioned as deputy sheriffs thus expanding their police authority throughout Essex County.
Non-sworn public safety officers do not have sworn police powers but are an essential part of the department. These officers are also empowered by the College to uphold policy and by-laws.
The department also oversees emergency medical response, medical escort services, fire safety and detection, crime prevention, personal safety escorts, parking enforcement, and visitor registration as well as other community policing functions.
