Welcome to Campus Safety

Campus Commitment to Safety

The Campus Safety Staff at NHTI, Concord's Community College is committed to the safety and well being of all members of the campus community. Of course, a truly safe campus can only be accomplished through the cooperation of the entire college community, which includes students, faculty and staff and visitors.

Campus Safety Department

The Campus Safety Department operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Officers conduct vehicle and foot patrols on campus and are charged with the enforcement of federal, state and local laws, as well as NHTI policies and regulations. Although Campus Safety officers do not make arrests, the Campus Safety Department maintains a working relationship with the New Hampshire State Police and the Concord Police Department. The Campus Safety Department keeps daily logs and entries that are available to the public within two days of an event.

NHTI strongly encourages the reporting of crimes, accidents, incidents and other emergencies. To contact Campus Safety, dial 9-224-3287 from any state phone on campus. Also, direct access can be made by using the call boxes located inside every elevator or accessing the “Code Blue” phones located on campus. View the locations of the "Code Blue" phones on our campus map.

Members of the college community must assume responsibility for their own personal safety and the security of their personal belongings by taking simple, common sense precautions. For example, although the campus is well lit, any student may feel more comfortable calling Campus Safety for an escort to their vehicle. Also, consider using the “buddy system” to walk to the parking lot. Vehicles should always be locked and valuables stored out of sight. Any suspicious individuals or activity should be reported immediately.

Potential or actual criminal activity and other emergencies can be reported directly by any student, faculty member or employee to the Campus Safety Department or appropriate faculty/staff. The College encourages reporting directly to local authorities in situations where the need is obvious, such as a theft you see taking place or a situation requiring immediate medical attention, etc. Notification of College personnel should take place after the emergency authorities are en route.

Further information on safety and security is provided to students and employees through posters, brochures, the weekly newsletter Campus Comments and residence hall meetings. These are some of the programs that will be provided throughout the year, defensive driving, CPR AED, alchohol and drug awareness, and other educational programming.

Students are responsible for reading and adhering to all policies of NHTI, as they are detailed in the Student Handbook. All students can obtain a copy from the Student Affairs Office, located on the second floor of the Student Center or you may access the Student Handbook on-line.
