In order to ensure the safety of members of the college community, McKendree maintains a staff of campus public safety officers. The Office of Public Safety is located on the second floor of Pearsons Hall, and public safety officers patrol the campus 24 hours per day throughout the year. Public safety officers are responsible for maintaining a safe and orderly environment on the campus; assisting members of the College community as needed; responding to emergency situations including fire alarms, inclement weather alarms, and other incidents; and enforcing College policies.

The Office of Public Safety may be contacted by telephone at ext. 6911, or by pager at 325-1818.

When leaving a message for the Office of Public Safety, please be sure to include your name, your location, and a phone number where you can be contacted. Short voice messages may also be recorded on the pager. Students in the residence halls should also contact the residence life staff on duty, who can summon public safety officers by radio.

Students should also contact the Office of Public Safety to obtain a personal identification card and to register their cars.
