At Salem University, our concern for the safety and well-being of our students, faculty, and staff is always our top priority.  The Campus Security Department provides 24-hour patrol coverage of the campus. The Director of Campus Safety and Security and the Campus Security Officers provide coverage for residence halls, parking areas, and other facilities. Security personnel are on duty weekdays and weekends, including holidays.

Campus Security is a non-commissioned security force, not a police force. It is responsible for maintaining the physical security and safety of the University and its students, faculty, staff, visitors, and facilities; for enforcing University policies and regulations; for investigating and reporting incidents; for conducting safety inspections and drills; for collaborating with law enforcement agencies to enforce local, State, and Federal laws; and for completing other tasks of campus security as needed.
