Campus Police

The Campus Police Department serves the Hampshire, Mount Holyoke and Smith College communities. Our staff is responsible for the safety and security of our communities, including:

• crime prevention programming
• investigations
• patrol and response services
• assistance to our faculty, staff, students and visitors

We are a fully-accredited campus police department staffed with academy-trained police officers, professional dispatchers and administrative staff.

The Department is committed to community policing, and staff members are available to partner with community members and organizations to provide crime prevention programs and problem-solving initiatives on the campuses.

We operate 24 hours a day year-round and are the point of contact for all emergencies and for a variety of community services for our campuses. The Central Dispatch Center handles routine calls for service as well as emergency contact services for the three campuses and can be reached at the phone numbers listed on this page.

Safety and security is a shared responsibility. If you have any concerns about safety on your campus, please do not hesitate to contact us.
