Campus Security


Campus Security at the University is under overseen by the Director of Campus Safety, a full-time university employee. Guard services are contracted with Allied Universal Security Services. The Campus Security Officers are uniformed, unarmed, and not deputized. Their authority to arrest is the same power as that of any private citizen.

The University enforces local, state and federal laws and University regulations. Securitas Security and/or the Honolulu Police Department investigate all criminal incidents. Since Allied Universal personnel are not deputized, they maintain a close relationship with and rely on local law enforcement to respond when called.

University Security has jurisdiction over the campus. Officers are present 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Contact Security by dialing (808) 735-4792 from an outside phone, or dial 4792 from any campus phone. Immediately report all crimes and incidents to the Security staff. Resident Assistants have radios and cellphones to contact Campus Security Officers to assist students who have security needs.
