Employment Opportunity

As an employee of the University and more specifically the Campus Police  you will find it a very rewarding  employment. The benefits of employment can not always be measured in purely monetary value. Personal satisfaction, educational opportunities, and employee benefits provided are part of what constitutes the total package.
