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 Oct. 1, Public Safety officers observed a suspicious vehicle parked in an unusual area.  Upon contact with the driver, officers recognized the subject to be under the influence of a controlled substance. A glass smoking device containing a substance which was suspected to be marijuana was seized from the subject.

On Oct. 2, Public Safety officers responded to an unconscious person in a stairwell. Upon arrival, officers rendered aid to a female patient having a seizure until Madison paramedics arrived on scene and transported the patient to a local hospital for appropriate assessment and treatment.

On Oct. 2, Public Safety officers responded to the Commercial Avenue Campus to remove an intoxicated suspended student. The subject was belligerent and profane to staff and also to officers when they made contact. The person was removed from campus.

You’re on Officer Cam
Public Safety officers are currently testing portable patrol cameras to see if they would be useful tools to add to their repertoire to better aid them in crime detection, prevention and prosecution.  Don’t be alarmed if you see a Public Safety officer wearing a camera on their sunglasses, hats or shoulders.

If you have any information regarding the above incidents or other campus safety concerns, please contact our department at 608-245-2222.  Public Safety Officers are available 24/7.
