Department of Public Safety

California Baptist University maintains its Department of Public Safety for the purpose of enhancing the safety and security of the University community. The department assists with the protection of students, employees, and property. Public Safety assumes an educational role in teaching members of the University community to look out for one another.

California Baptist University certifies that it has established a campus security policy, is carrying out that policy, and meets the disclosure requirements of Title IV of the Higher Education Act (HEA) of 1965 regarding campus security policies and crime statistics.

Information in the Emergency Response and Safety Handbook, and Annual Security Report is provided by law annually to all current students, faculty and staff, employees, and upon request to applicants for employment or enrollment (or parents), or upon demand to the Secretary of the Department of Education. The Annual Security Report is distributed by the Department of Public Safety throughout the year to new students at registration, and to new employees with their new-hire-packet. Click here to view CBU's Annual Security Report for the 2007 calendar year.
