What’s happening? 

Public Safety officers respond to many calls for service and we enjoy communicating our activities to the college community.  Here are some of the notable incidents from this past month.

On Sept. 17, Public Safety officers responded to a report of an owl tangled in the college’s baseball netting near the bike path.  Officers responded and located the distressed animal.  Officers were able to free the owl without harming the animal.

On Sept. 18, Public Safety officers responded to the Downtown Campus to assist Madison Police in attempting to locate a suspect involved in armed robbery.  The campus was placed into a lock down while city officers cleared the building and ensured the safety of all staff and students to resume normal academic pursuits.

On Sept. 26, Public Safety officers responded to a female patient suffering from an unknown medical condition.  Once officers arrived on scene, they rendered aid until Madison Paramedics arrived on scene and took control of the patient.

Campus Safety tip of the Month

Public Safety would like to remind all students and staff to sign up for the WolfPack Alert.  This is a free service and is the quickest and easiest way to get important information in times of emergency.  Recent events on campus proved the WolfPack Alert worked well to inform everyone of details of the event and we encourage everyone to sign up.

If you haven’t signed up please go to Madison College Public Safety’s webpage, http://madisoncollege.edu/safety, and follow the steps to sign up.

If you have any information regarding the above incidents or other campus safety concerns, please contact our department at 245-2222. Public Safety officers are available 24/7.
