This Special Services division consists of 3 other units; Communications, Records, Computer Network development and Software support. Each of these areas serves in a support capacity to the entire Department.
Communications
The Communications unit is staffed with trained dispatchers that handle incoming telephone calls from regular, emergency 911, and blue-phone direct line telephones. They dispatch and monitor officers on all calls for service over the campus radio network. The dispatchers prioritize the information they receive and then relay it to other persons or officers. They monitor two fire systems, two access control systems, and all holdup/disturbance/intrusion systems on campus. Access Control administration is also handled through this area as is video monitoring of the campus CCTV system.
Records
The Records unit is staffed with personnel that handle data entry, archiving operations, and report requests as well as the responsibility for fingerprinting license applicants. The care, custody and control of the Evidence/Property room rests with this unit. They also handle reports and crime analysis.
