Director's Message

Welcome to our web page and thanks for visiting. The Department of Public Safety has set up this Internet site to provide you with important information about our department and to share pertinent crime prevention information.

The mission of this department is stated as follows:

"The Truman State University Department of Public Safety will provide a safe, secure, and orderly learning and living environment for students, faculty, staff and visitors and establish a partnership with the University community to protect life, property, and the rights and dignity of all individuals."

Our core values are: Compassion, Integrity, and Honor.

All members of this department strive to follow the mission and values in everything they do and keep these in mind at all times.

Within this site you will find a wide variety of public safety information, tips, online forms, crime statistics and e-mail links to our staff.

Our department's commitment to the community policing philosophy and the university's sense of community make Truman State University a great place to work, study and grow.

We are continually improving and expanding this site. Please feel free to drop me a line and make suggestions. I can be reached at the address below.
