Describe the extent and nature of enforcement authority of campus security authority personnel:

The Midway College Department of Public Safety functions as a service group rather than a law enforcement office.  The Department of Public Safety works very closely with the Woodford County Police Department for issues involving required investigations and/or arrest.  The Office of Student Affairs has direct responsibility for enforcement of student disciplinary procedures.

Describe the working relationship of campus security authority personnel with state and local police agencies:

Midway College Department of Public Safety works closely with local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies.  The Woodford County Police Department has an officer assigned to the Midway City/Midway College area, and the Chief of Police has agreed to work with the college on reporting requirements outlined under this act.

Section 2: Description of Information Programs.

Describe programs that inform students and employees about:

(a)Campus safety and security:

The Midway College Department of Public Safety publishes a Campus Safety Hand­book that is distributed on campus and contains information on fire safety, severe weather, bomb threats, weapons possession, escort service, and sexual assault.  An Emergency Response Manual is published by the Physical Plant and distributed to each department on campus.  The Office of Student Affairs routinely holds infor­ma­tional meetings on safety topics.  Midway College has organized a Safety Committee that works with each department on remedies of safety concerns or issues. The Physical Plant issues Special Reports as required. 

(b)How to report a crime:

The Campus Safety Handbook contains information on the proper procedure to contact Campus Security.  Student Affairs publishes and distributes a list of names and telephone numbers for reporting emergencies and non-emergencies.

(c)How to prevent crimes:

The Director of Public Safety conducts a meeting at the beginning of the Fall Semester and discusses personal safety.  Student Affairs conducts classes each semester and promotes awareness of rape, date rape, and other forcible and non-forcible sexual offenses.  The college community is given a Vehicle Information pamphlet that contains safety tips about the escort service, locked automobiles, locked Residence halls and rooms, and walking alone in dark areas.  Midway College has in the past invited the Kentucky State Police and the Woodford County Police to come to campus to conduct seminars on personal safety.  Midway College will continue to use these methods of notification if the agencies are willing to help.
