SAFETY
Campus Safety
Every member of the campus community is responsible for safety awareness. Multiple agencies work
cooperatively to educate the campus community about all aspects of personal safety. The Clemson
University Police Department (CUPD) is responsible for campus law enforcement and security.
CUPD is committed to excellence and has passed a rigorous external review and is accredited by the
South Carolina Law Enforcement Accreditation Inc. All CUPD officers are sworn law enforcement
officers and are responsible for promoting safety through community policing and offer educational
programs in classes and residence halls. The Clemson University Fire Department (CUFD) and
Emergency Medical Services (EMS) is dedicated to protecting life, property and the environment.
The university is the primary response area for CUFD and EMS, but they also provide fire
suppression to the City of Clemson. Clemson University Emergency Management works with the
university community to provide emergency response training. Every building on campus has a
Building Security Coordinator that works with Emergency Management to create evacuation and
emergency action plans.

in the campus community to remain aware, informed and take appropriate safety precautions
every day.
The university has several methods of notifying the campus community of emergency situations.
Sirens are strategically located across campus and are activated when necessary to alert the
