Campus Police and Public Safety
The Winston-Salem State University Police and Public Safety works closely with the entire WSSU community to create a safe and secure campus for all. We forge strong relationships with students, faculty, and staff which empowers us to build trust and improve our level of service. Our community policing efforts engage campus constituents in authentic ways that engender mutual trust and respect.

Look for some of these events throughout the year:

WSSU Safety Day includes booths staffed by area emergency services agencies, public and mental health organizations, disability service agencies, domestic violence prevention, the WSSU RAMS Mobile Clinic. Campus Police and Public safety officers will be there as well as representatives from WSSU Emergency Management.
