Benedictine University Police officers come from both municipal and college/university police agencies and are accustomed to the daily trials and tribulations of students at Benedictine.
Our officers are here to serve and protect students and other members of the Benedictine University community. We are also here to help in times of distress. Whether you have just locked your keys in your car or just need to talk to someone, we want to make your experience at Benedictine a safe and positive one.
We employ Illinois certified police officers who have full police powers including arrest. Our officers also bring specialized training and experience to Benedictine and serve as mentors to students.
University Police officers have a combined 200 years of law enforcement experience and training and are available for class presentations, student groups and other campus entities as needs arise. Topics may include crime prevention, personal safety, alcohol/drug awareness, violence in the work place, etc.
The mission of the Benedictine University Police is to provide resources to ensure a safe campus environment and improve the quality of life within our University community.
Police services include campus area patrols, criminal investigations, accident/crash reports, traffic control, traffic and parking enforcement and crime prevention.
They also include the following:
Safety escorts are provided 24 hours per day for students who feel unsafe traversing campus. If you feel unsafe for any reason, please feel free to contact University Police and request a safety escort to any on-campus destination.
University Police will, to the degree that we are able, attempt to jumpstart your vehicle if you request this service. We will also attempt to unlock your vehicle when you lock your keys in the car. However, during the winter months, if the temperature falls below 30 degrees, please be aware of potential damage to your vehicle resulting from a mixture of cold weather and unlocking tools.
