The Office of Safety and Security, in agreement with the purposes of 51社区, strives to provide a safe and secure campus environment by protecting and providing assistance for students, faculty, staff, and visitors. We will be service-oriented, person-centered and distinctively Christian in all that we do. While providing these services, we will treat all persons with respect and dignity to reflect the Christian principles upon which 51社区 was founded.
If a member of the 51社区 community has reason to believe that a student who resides in on-campus housing is missing, he or she should immediately notify Union Safety and Security at 731-394-2922. Upon receiving a missing person's report, it is Union's policy to notify the Jackson Police Department at 731-425-8432.
All students are required to provide emergency contact information prior to enrolling for classes each semester. 51社区 will notify a student's emergency contact no later than 24 hours after the student is determined to be missing. Additionally, if a student is under 18 years of age and not emancipated, the university is required to notify a custodial parent or guardian within 24 hours of the determination that the student is missing. A student's emergency contact information will be accessible only by authorized campus officials and law enforcement.
