Danville Public Safety Is Tops.
Centre is a safe campus, and that's largely due to Danville Public Safety, called DPS for short. DPS is our on campus security that works around the clock to ensure students are having fun, but doing so safely. What's more, they tend to have very good relationships with the students and because of this, earn their respect pretty easily. They're always willing to escort students on golf carts who feel unsafe traversing campus or parking lots at night, they keep an eye on parties but aren't intrusive, and they are really good about unlocking doors on campus to buildings which you have expressed written permission to be in after hours. That's not to say everything on Centre's campus is perfect. We do have students who vandalize our dormitories. Vandals usually strike early on in the academic year and are presumed to be inebriated at the time of incident. The vast majority of campus does not tolerate this behavior though and students are generally willing to divulge information to DPS when it occurs. Additionally, you'll find that some students' things go missing, but this only happens to students who leave their doors unlocked on a regular basis. I've had two bikes stolen at Centre...that's the only frustrating aspect of security. But it's no one's fault but my own, I left them unlocked on the nights they went missing.
