Campus Safety

The Cypress College Department of Campus Safety is committed to providing a safe campus environment for its students, faculty, and visitors. Campus Safety provides security and safety services to the campus. The department is responsible for crime prevention and personal safety. While this is our primary responsibility, personal safety and crime prevention does rest with each individual. Therefore, each of us must take personal responsibility for our own safety, as well as for the safety of those around us.

Cypress College is among the safest colleges in the country. We strive towards this goal by providing proactive patrol procedures, interaction with the community, and high visibility. We have also established a partnership with the Cypress Police Department. This combination has been successful in solving many of the problems and issues that have been presented to Cypress College members.

Campus Safety provides coverage to the campus 24 hours a day. Campus Safety is located in the Business Building, first floor adjacent to parking Lot 1. Any criminal action or emergency should be reported to Campus Safety at (714) 484-7387.

Cypress College complies with the Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS) and the National Incident Management System (NIMS) by conducting emergency exercises each semester.

Campus Safety provides escort service upon request at (714) 484-7387. Lost and found items are housed in the Campus Safety Office. Contact Campus Safety to receive information regarding items.
