The Cayuga Community College Office of Public Safety is a law enforcement entity consisting of sworn peace officers who have taken an oath to serve and protect both the Auburn Main Campus located in Cayuga County, NY, and the Fulton Branch Campus located in Oswego County, NY. The Cayuga Community College Office of Public Safety operates two main sections of service: campus police patrol operations and safety operations.

Currently, the Cayuga Community College Office of Public Safety consists of a Director of Public Safety/Chief Public Safety Officer, Patrol Supervisor/Sergeant, and 15 part time Public Safety Officer who also hold positions as police officers in several area municipalities. All members of the Cayuga Community College Office of Public Safety have exceeded the State University of New York (SUNY) Peace Officer Training standards of 400+ hours by attending police academies.

History

Prior to 2005, Auburn City Police Officers provided campus police services under the color of the Auburn City Police Department. In 2005, an issue arose with the city council, whom were concerned about liability issues with the police officer acting as "city police officers" while actually working for the college. The College Board of Trustees decided to exercise their right under New York State Criminal Procedure Law Article 2.10 Subsection 78 and install peace officers employeed by the college. The city police officers were allowed to lateral into the part time positions, the Chief whom also worked for an area police department was granted peace officer status, and the full-time Sergeant was subsequently sent to the police academy and was bestowed upon with peace officer status.

The present day Cayuga Community College Office of Public Safety was born.

Training

Though state regulation only requires SUNY Community College Peace Officers to attend approximately 400 hours of training, Cayuga Community College Office of Public Safety requires their Public Safety Officers to attend the full 635 hour police academy. This means that these peace officers are trained as highly as their municipal police officer counterparts.

Equipment

All Cayuga Community College Office of Public Safety officers are armed with Glock .40 caliber semi-automatic pistols, batons, pepper spray, and handcuffs. There are potential future plans for training and equipping the officers with Tasers. The president of all SUNY Community Colleges determine whether or not officers on their campus will carry firearms, Cayuga Community College's President has decided to allow such tools to be carried.

Power and Authority

Cayuga Community College Public Safety Officers are designated as New York State Peace Officers in accordance with Article 2.10 Subsection 78, of the New York State Criminal Procedure Law. As New York State Peace Officers, these officers are fully sworn and commissioned by the State of New York to enforce the laws of New York State in their jurisdiction, which lies on the two campuses of the college, all other college property, and the adjoining roadways between campuses and/or other college property. However, they have restricted powers of arrest anywhere in New York State and may use force to do so as per the Penal Law. Cayuga Community College Office of Public Safety officers perform the same functions as most other law enforcement departments in the state except for the serving of warrants. Public Safety officers may act on warrants that come to their attention, but the serving of warrants on the two college campuses, other college property, and the adjoining roadways is the jurisdiction of the respective local municipal police agency. Other powers include warrantless arrests, the use of deadly physical force, and issuing tickets and court summonses.

Relationship with Municipal Police Agencies

Cayuga Community College Office of Public Safety shares an excellent professional relationship with the Auburn City Police Department, Fulton City Police Department, Cayuga County Sheriff's Office, Oswego County Sheriff's Department, and the New York State Police.
