Crime Reporting Procedures

20 U.S.C. 1092(1)(A)

Las Positas College maintains a security department with personnel available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Persons are encouraged to report any criminal activity or any other emergency at any time day or night by calling Campus Security at 925.424.1699 or by coming in person to the campus safety office located in room 1725. If the office is closed, the on-duty security officer can be contacted by telephone in the following ways:

• From any off-campus phone, dial the campus switchboard at 925.424.1000 until 9 pm.
• From any on-campus telephone between 7am and 11pm, dial 925.424.1690 for normal business, or in the event of an emergency, dial 1699.
• If you know of any activity occurring on campus and want to report, click the “Incident Reporting” on the right side of the page.

Emergency call boxes are also located in several parking lots, on the campus parimeter road, and near the Student Center. In the event of an emergency, push the button on the emergency call boxes and the on-duty officer is notified over his walkie-talkie of your location. You may communicate directly with the on-duty officer by following the directions on the emergency call boxes. Outside the entrance to the Campus Safety Office (1725) there is an emergency auto-dialer. In the case of an emergency and the office is locked, you can push the button on the auto-dialer. This will ring to the on-duty security officer’s walkie-talkie and you will be able to communicate directly with the officer.
