CAMPUS PROTECTION SPECIALIST (CPS)

See also : Patrol

The non-sworn Campus Protection Specialist (CPS) program was implemented in June of 2008. The significant number of special events occurring on campus annually dictated a need to have specially trained staff available to work these events. Initially the program started with a small number of CPS and has grown to approximately forty personnel who provide a valuable service to the Department and the University. CPS personnel receive specialized training in areas such as traffic direction, CPR, ethics, and customer service.  CPS personnel are identifiable by a light blue shirt with the departmental patch and a rocker panel that reads “Campus Protection Specialist”.
