Mission Statement The University Police Department at the State University College at Oswego was formed to establish and preserve peace and order on this campus in the furtherance of the colleges academic mission. The Department is comprised of professional Police Officers supported by skilled civilian staff. We serve and protect the life, liberty, and property of all individuals who are part of our community, including students, faculty, staff, vendors and visitors. The uniqueness of providing a police function in a university setting mandates that we only hire the best possible candidates as member s of our agency. An ancillary, but important aspect of our mission is to educate the campus community in modern methods of emergency response, crime prevention and personal safety. Community Policing is an important part of this facet of our mission. We work as a team with other University Departments locally and statewide as well as external law enforcement agencies to provide a safer environment for learning, working and growing. A guiding principal of our mission is that the University Police Department works from a collaborative framework to provide a safer community with other key stakeholders, particularly our individual citizens. The department is sworn to afford everyone the right to express themselves without regard to race, creed, gender, religion, or sexual orientation. Our core mission is founded on respect for our community, integrity and pride in service to the community.

SUNY Oswego College University Police Department

Chiefs Report 2007 This was a pivotal year for the University Police at SUNY Oswego regarding emergency response and strategic long range planning relative to critical incidents. Training for emergencies and emergency procedure development, security consultation and planning for the installation of security improvements slated for 2008 were top priorities in 2007. In April of 2007 the mass shootings at Virginia Technical Institute changed the landscape for university policing, emergency response to critical incidents and security measures on Americas college campuses forever. The tragic events at the VT and NIU campuses have prompted from SUNY Systems Administration statewide and from SUNY Oswego in specific, a call to analyze the events leading up to those campus shootings this past year and to learn what lessons can be learned and put those into best practices to reduce the risk of such an incident happening on this campus. While SUNY Oswego has always enjoyed a relatively secure environment and we have always worked diligently to sustain and maintain that safe community, the VT and NIU shootings have prompted from all colleges, including ours, a new assertive approach to campus safety. Our thoughts go out to the campuses in our nation that suffered the effects of such terrible incidents in the year 2007. We made much progress in 2007 in Emergency Management Development with many more changes slated for 2008. I would like to sincerely thank President Deborah F. Stanley and Vice President Nick Lyons for their assistance and support of our departmental mission and the development of safety initiatives during the year 2007. A special thanks to Lorrie Clemo, assistant to the President for her partnership in the Emergency Management Plan project in the year 2007. I would also extend my thanks to Assistant Vice Chancellor Roger Johnson at SUNY Systems Administration and his Assistant John Szyikowski for their aide in sharing best practices, access to training and resources over the year 2007. I would also like to thank all of the members of the University Police Department and Parking Division for their support and extra effort during this milestone year in the history of University Police. A special thanks to Officer Rich Sherwood and CPSO Jamie Enwright for their assistance to me in formatting

this annual report. Emergency Preparedness - 2007 University Police does much in terms of strategic planning for emergency preparedness in a continuing manner. The text below summarizes the training and planning that we accomplished in 2007. There were numerous initiatives in 2007, only the most highly prioritized will be included in this report for brevities sake. In April of 2007 President Stanley drew her Emergency Managers and Executive team together and charged our campus to develop a comprehensive all hazards plan for SUNY Oswego. On the heels of the launching of that project, the Chancellors Office supplied a response to the Virginia Tech incident on May 11 th that proscribed for all SUNY colleges in New York state a template for compliance in regards to the management of critical incidents in light of the lessons learned from the Virginia Tech shootings. This office began in earnest to form a comprehensive campus group of emergency managers across departmental domains to create an Emergency Response Plan that was fully compliant with the requirements of the Chancellors template and met the charge as set by President Stanley. Our plan was written over the year 2007 and submitted to Albany for review. Our campus EMP has been accepted in full by Systems Administration on behalf of the Chancellors office. A limited number of hard copies have been printed for college department heads that are emergency mangers and electronic versions are available. An appendix was also developed as a companion to the EMP that includes all supporting documents such as a business continuity plan and all campus building maps. Other initiatives in 2007 regarding Emergency planning included the development and implementation of a comprehensive Emergency Preparedness Procedures flip charts customized for the SUNY Oswego campus. This project was initiated by Vice President Nick Lyons and was completed in the Fall of 2007 by Chief Adam. These laminated booklets contain pertinent essential emergency information for all college faculty, staff and emergency response personnel. They have been well received by our campus faculty and staff. Chief Adam began a series of continuing trainings as a companion and orientation to emergency preparedness with selected faculty and staff in 2007. This outreach will continue in 2008 and beyond. In addition to the above projects, University Police partnered closely with the office of Student Affairs in 2007 to develop and implement a risk assessment team in compliance with the Chancellors recommendations to increase safety and insure the streamlined deployment of services to students in crisis. During 2007 the risk assessment committee met regularly to provide assessments and insure students were matched with referral information for college services across the spectrum of needs. New York Alerts One of the requirements of the Chancellorss template for SUNY regarding safety initiatives for 2007 included the requirement for passive mass broadcast notification system for each SUNY college. In response to this mandate, SUNY entered into a relationship with the State Emergency Management Office (SEMO) to provide a mass notification system to all subscribed SUNY colleges via the New York Alerts System.

The NY Alerts system provides emergency burst messenging to our campus students, faculty and staff via text messages by cell, hard line phone and email. The system was customized at SUNY Oswego with the help of the Public Affairs Director, CTS and IT and this writer with oversite from V.P. Lyons. The system at the end of 2007 stands ready to be used to notify community members of any emergency condition. SUNY Oswego has some of the highest enrollment numbers of any of the State colleges in our system due to active marketing of the system and sound registration practices. Tests on the system are conducted every Friday to insure the system is in good working order. The campus community has positively responded to having such a progressive notification system in place. Campus Center Opens In the Fall of 2007 after years of anticipation the Campus Center opened. A large scale opening was planned by the Presidents Office. University Police assisted with the planning and implementation of a series of opening events including a visit from Al Roker of the Today show for a dedication of the Roker Studio and a live from SUNY Oswego Campus Center nationwide broadcast. This event was highly received by all constituents of the campus and larger community and helped market our campus on a national level. Technological Advances in 2007 Last year the Millennium Access Control System was installed in the residence halls to provide a safer and more secure environment. On the heels of the installation of this system, UPD partnered with Residence Life and Housing and Facilities and Operations to request a consultative study to be commissioned in late 2006 - Spring 2007 to provide a Masterplan for Security for SUNY Oswego. This plan was made available in June of 2007 and provided a template of policies, procedures and best practices for threat reduction for this campus in the residence halls, administration and academic buildings. Chief Adam, representing University Police continued to collaborate with Mr. Chuck Weeks of Residence Life and Housing, and various consultants from BPS to explore applications to this campus for CCTV, Digital television stations and Emergency Procedures in addition to the Millennium Access Control System and the implementation of the Masterplan for Security as separate projects in 2007. These various projects will continue through 2008. Other projects that UPD Administration worked on in 2007 were planning for the west campus townhouses in conjunction with Residence Life and Housing and a major signage project in conjunction with Facilities Design and Construction amongst many other projects in various stages of design and implementation. Long range goals for next year will be to create more streamlined access and key control polices between departments and to establish response procedures for UPD and Residence Life regarding access control systems. A maintenance agreement for service to Millennium was also a project for 2007 that Chief Adam participated in creating. T2 - Flex and Tracs In 2007 University Police implemented a new comprehensive parking data base which included on-line secure

sites for parking registration, fine payment, appeal scheduling and batch automated mass email notifications. This project began in 2005 and was a very challenging project requiring many hours of customization of the software and careful coordination with the vendors IT team. Thanks to Mike Pisa, Mary Gosek, John Perrin and Andy Michaelis of the IT as well as a kudos to Vicky Tesoriero, the Project Manager of University Police Parking Division. This new system has been very well received in 2007 by the campus community as it automates many of the parking services that used to have to be done in person. Tracs is a state funded grant program which provided $33, 000 dollars to University Police for the installation of computers in some of the police cruisers. Having computers in our police cars will expedite the processing of traffic tickets and accident reports as they will be shared electronically with our local Court System, NYSPIN (the New York State Police Information Network) and the D.As office. This project began in 2006 and is also very comprehensive as it requires training for the officers and much assistance from IT. It is slated for implementation in the Summer of 2008. Tracs will increase officer safety and increase patrol visibility as it affords the officers the ability to stay on dedicated patrol in generating these specific types of police reports Major Accomplishments 2007 Increased training for emergencies and critical incident procedures development, security consultation and planning for the installation of technological security improvements slated for 2008 were all priorities for this calendar year above our normal mission of protecting and serving our community with police and emergency response. SUNY Oswego has always enjoyed a secure environment relative to other schools our size in similar environments. Many positive changes occurred in the year 2007 to streamline communications, develop all-hazards emergency plans, improve dissemination regarding emergency response procedures for our campus members and to provide training for emergency responders and managers. In the Fall of 2007 UPD staff worked with IT and Fire Safety to inventory and identify the current status of our Fire Alarm and Intrusion Alarm systems to make requisite changes and to streamline functionality. UP also worked with IT to deadline old databases (paradox) and to merge into a new reporting platform for incident based reporting called E-Justice. Other database changes in 2007 were the importation of E Justice in lieu of NYSPIN and Homeland Security terminals. Many thanks to Investigator Dan May, our TAC officer who spearheaded this project. In 2007 we streamlined transition to this new system. Personnel 2007 There were significant changes to staffing and the organizational chart of University Police in 2007. In 2007 we promoted former Investigator John Rossi to the rank of Assistant Chief, former officer Geri Bosco to the rank of Lieutenant and former officer Dan May to the rank of Investigator.

In addition, a new officer, David Miller was hired in 2007 to replace officer Seth Kriesal who left UPD to return permanently to military service. Congratulations to these department members as they begin these new roles and thanks to our President and Vice President for their support in providing these essential staff positions. Additional staffing requests call for the appointment of a midnight shift dispatcher in 2008 to fill the need for having more police officers in the field. This function is currently being met by police officers from the midnight shift. Assistant Chiefs Report: On December 27, 2007 the position of Assistant University Police Chief was reinstated. This will now allow a greater over site of the day to day activities of the Criminal Investigation Division, as well as greater coordination of the Patrol Division. The Assistant Chief will now be able to expand the departments in service training schedule and facilitate sending officers to various law enforcement specialty trainings throughout the State. The Department continued its participation with assigning member(s) to the Oswego County District Attorneys Office Drug Task Force. A multi agency approach operating in various jurisdictions the task force was able to arrest and have dozens of local drug dealers prosecuted, a majority of whom may have avoided detection if it was not for the task forces dedicated efforts. District Attorney Donald Dodd presented the department with a 2002 Ford pick up truck that was seized in a drug investigation. This will allow the department to use this vehicle as a utility truck, enabling transportation of barricades and other items, as well as allow our plainclothes officers a covert vehicle to patrol in. In the spring a Grant through the Governors Office of Traffic Safety was applied for. We were notified in the fall that we had received the grant. This has allowed for the purchase of $28,000 worth of laptop computers, mobile printers, scanners and vehicle consoles for several patrol vehicles. We are now able to participate in the New York State Traffic and Criminal Software program. Using advanced wireless technology will allow officers to complete police and accident reports in the field and have them transmitted to the station supervisor for review and processing. TraCS benefits the police officer by decreasing the amount of time to issue a traffic ticket or collect accident report information. The less time police officers spend parked along busy roads, the less chance of an accident, injury, or traffic disruption. The accuracy of accident and ticket data that police officers collect is greatly improved. Finally, reducing the time officers spend on paper work increases their availability for patrol. TraCS offers time-saving features, such as, barcode scanners that scan license and registration information directly into documents, and auto-populate, which allows officers to enter data once into TraCS and populate other documents with the same information with a click of a button. TraCS also provide police officers with daily downloads of suspended or revoked licenses and registrations, enabling ready identification of motorists who may be driving illegally. John Perrin of CTS has worked diligently in setting up the hardware and software for the system. The Department will be seeking alternate funding sources in order to purchase additional units for the remainder of the fleet. Operations Report

Crime The number of reported crimes on the SUNY Oswego Campus in 2007 were the lowest in over twenty years. This low trend has continued since 2000 with the number of reported criminal offenses in 2000 at 606 and this years number at 474 up only 2 from 2006. These downward trends in crime have been reflected in national crime statistics as well. The numbers for 2007 in the most prevalently reported crime categories is a continuation of a multi-year downward trend. There are two categories that show a marked decrease for 2007. These are burglary and drug offenses. In 2005 there were 44 reported burglaries. In 2006 there were only 24 In 2007 there were 17 reported burglaries. It will be interesting to track these statistics to see if increased access control in the form of the Millennium Access Control system in residence halls with a response from UPD will be associated with a decrease in reported burglary offenses. Drug offenses were down from 46 cases in 2005 to 29 in 2006 up to 46 again in 2007. It is significant to note that in the year 2000 there were 136 reported incidences of harassment. In 2006 there were only 27 reports with only 21 reported instances total in 2007. Increased training in the residence halls with student hall staff may be responsible for the significant reduction in interpersonal harassing behaviors in part in conjunction with more UPD training with RA staff about these issues in the Summer of 2007. Also significant is the dramatic reduction of criminal mischief complaints from a high of 204 incidences in 2002 to2006's report of 110 complaints and 106 in 2007. Leaving the Scene of an Accident reports showed a spike of 26 cases in 2006 to 35 in 2007.

The number of DWI cases remained relatively static at 26 cases in 2007, 29 in 2006 from 34 in 2005. All other categories of crime offenses remained at or close to previous years trends. Arrests There were 133 total criminal arrests and 177 charges lodged by University Police in 2007. One hundred and two of these arrests were students, none were college employees and 31 were non-campus affiliated. University Police Services A total of 20, 551 police services were reported for the year 2006 and 21, 711 for 2007, an increase of over a thousand calls for service. In addition our web site was busier than ever before in terms of anonymous tips, reporting and questions at both the pubsaf and parking-l addresses. Long range goals are to continue to improve our police services via the web as students and employees show a distinct preference for connecting in this manner. Parking The advantages of the new parking management system T2 Powerpark Flex, including the online web applications that were initiated in 2004, continued to facilitate parking administration in 2007. The dependable web applications drew more people to register their car, pay fines, and obtain information on their accounts online, resulting in more convenience for the campus community members and shorter lines for the staff at the Parking Office. This system, combined with a Parking Office staff that is now experienced with the system, makes for a very effective operation. The newest version of this parking accounts software called T2 Flex was purchased in 2006 with and was installed in late 2007. New services in 2007 allowed students to check parking registration as an additional service through their student accounts bill affording students the opportunity to roll parking fees into their tuition bill which can then be covered through financial aid. Parking changes in 2007 essentially revolved around adjustments for construction work and the relocation of various offices to accommodate the many construction projects that continued in 2007. The new lot adjacent to the Campus Center, lot 31 went into operation and has assisted in providing an ideal location for hockey staff and visitors to the arena with special needs. The Romney Fieldhouse had little proximate parking so this was yet another benefit to the new Campus Center. Plans for 2007 include a new commuter lot south of West End Avenue to service the Campus Center in the evenings and weekends for special events. Specialized Units University Police has several specialized units. My thanks to the Supervisors and Officers that commit a beyond the call of duty work ethic to keep these

specialized teams working so well in service to our community. Emergency Response Team The Emergency Response Team in 2007 continued to drill in a regular schedule and to expand their skills in the tactical area of response to crisis situations. In addition they worked with surrounding county SORT units to cross-train. This group is now lead by Lt. Kevin Velzy as Team Commander. Investigator Dan May is the Team Leader. Lt. Kirk Coates, who began the team back in 2000 retired from this Teams service. The Team appreciates his service and dedicated work in the area of tactical response. Bike Patrol Lt. Velzy has over site of the UPD Bike Patrol with assistance from Officer Tom Woodruff. The University Police Bike patrol kicked off the riding season April 30 th, 2007 with in service training by all

members. Officer Learned joined the Bike Patrol in the spring and completed the 40 hour certified training course. This course incidentally was held here at SUNY Oswego. After hosting the 40 hour course for a number of years, and then taking a hiatus, we were pleased to offer this challenging training program to police officers from all over New York State. Officers Woodruff, Proulx, and Lt. Velzy assisted with the instruction. The Bike Patrol officers also were able to offer some educational programs again this year. In May, Officer VanAntwerp and Lt. Velzy offered a bike safety demonstration to students and their parents at Elmcrest Elementary in Onondaga County. In June Officer Woodruff gave bike safety lectures and demonstrations to 5 th graders at Sandy Creek Elementary school in Oswego County, and in October Officer VanAntwerp and Lt. Velzy were back at Elmcrest for a Fall visit. 2007 statistics for the Bike Patrol were quite compatible with recent years; the team logged 800 miles, issued 7 traffic tickets, took 18 reports, and made 24 arrests. Again this year as in years past, the unit assisted the Oswego City Police Department with patrols for Harborfest, the annual summer festival in July which attracts close to 200,000 people. We added some new equipment to the Trek bikes which have served us well over the years. This year we purchased new Lightpro lighting systems which feature both a brilliant headlight and red and blue flashing lights for better visibility and protection for the officers riding after dark. Rape Aggression Defense In 2007 the Department again conducted Rape Aggression Defense training as a credit bearing course. Four sessions were conducted during the year by Chief Adam, Officer Geri Bosco, Officer Dan May, Officer Matthew Barbeau, and Kathy Hangac. The course has become very popular since it was first introduced to the campus several years ago. In it, participants learn about awareness, risk reduction, and self defense tactics in a hands on environment. The course continues to be a valuable service to the campus community. Thanks to Lt. Geri Bosco for her assistance with the administration of RAD this year. New instructors for 2007 were Officer Matt Fleming and Shelley Van Slyke of the Lifestyles Center.

We taught over 70 women in 2007. Equipment The main equipment purchase in 2007 was the Flex parking system. Our schedule calls for the rotation of another police SUV in 2007. That SUV will be turned over to F and O for their use. Also in 2007 the leased unmarked vehicle was rotated with a new leased Ford Explorer. In addition UPD purchased several thousand dollars of signs specific to the needs of the opening of the Campus Center. Other equipment purchases relative to the new Center included two thousand dollars worth of highway metal barricades and other traffic supplies. A new piece of training workout equipment was purchased to improve the quality of the work environment for the departments use. Standard uniform replacement parts for the officers and new uniforms for the new police and CPSO accounted for other expenditures in 2007. Training Quality Police training is a core guiding principal of University Police at SUNY Oswego. At UPD we have always believed that to be the best we have to train from that perspective and share the benefits of that training with others in this profession. 15 of our 19 sworn staff are certified police instructors via DCJS. In 2007 University Police completed 1984 hours of police training. Many of those hours related to emergency response and tactical training. Please see the training pages for a break down of training in 2007.

Community Policing Report The primary mission of the New York State University Police (NYSUP) at SUNY Oswego is to provide police services and emergency response for the campus community and all ancillary properties owned or controlled by SUNY Oswego. A secondary but vital part of UPDs mission is to provide community outreach and community programming on safety related topics. Preventative Policing The New York State University Police agency provides police and emergency services within a unique setting, that being an academic environment. It is vital within the paradigm of our learning environment to also extend our traditional police mission to include a preventative policing model or community policing outreach to provide prevention education to our student body and other members of our campus community and the larger Oswego community. The goal of this outreach is to educate our students, faculty and staff on such topics as emergency response, personal safety, mental health interventions, theft prevention, internet safety, alcohol and other drugs and other related safety topics. This important branch of NYSUPs overarching mission is to serve as a pro-active educational resource for our community in several key areas relating to safety, emergency response, their security and the law. One specific aspect of this mission is to be the conduit of information regarding topics related to law enforcement such as the nature and incidence of crime on this campus and to provide that information to our campus community in a concerted effort to prevent future crime and to raise awareness regarding ways to prevent crime at SUNY Oswego. An ancillary key concept in our community outreach is to identify our services, external law enforcement services, related referral information regarding other service providers in the area and our community members individual responsibility regarding their personal safety and the safety of their property (including concrete steps they can take to increase their safety and the safety of their peers). An additional goal of preventative policing and community outreach is to foster positive relationships with our community (internal, external and statewide).

Emergency preparedness, personal safety information, crime prevention strategies, the laws of New York State and the rules, regulations and procedures of the SUNY campus are the foundation of our prevention education curriculum. SUNY Oswego is a statistically safe, well informed community with a close knit campus whose constituencies (faculty, staff and students) work closely together to create a team environment within a community setting. NYSUP is an important part of that community team in many regards and we are actively engaged in many of the projects, programs and endeavors undertaken by the campus to make SUNY Oswego the unique place it is to live, work and study. Another key objective is to inform our student body, faculty and staff that they can have a positive impact on our campus environment regarding their own safety and the general security of this college by making good choices relative to safety and security and by educating themselves about these topics. UP Officers stress in our community programming that having a safe campus is a shared responsibility between our communities citizens and the University Police Department. In the furtherance of attaining the above goals, University Police at Oswego has established a robust community policing model which shares resources, personnel and expertise with our campus via community service programs and college committees and task forces whose work pertains to safety, security and emergency response. In providing this multi-tiered platform of connections between our college community and the NYS University Police we have created a bridge that carries services and information to and from our department to the citizens we serve and protect. One of the most direct ways that we establish linkages to our campus is through our community service programs described below. Community Service Programs During 2007, the New York State University Police at Oswego continued to provide quality educational programming upon request for the SUNY Oswego college community and the larger community. In 2007, University Police provided 58 community service programs to the Oswego campus and surrounding high schools as well as to the larger community. In addition we provided dozens of summer orientation programs and guest speaking engagements to the campus community and the larger community. We also participated in the Fall student, new Faculty, and the Student Teacher orientation programs. We provided training to our Residence Life and Housing Directors/Assistant Hall Directors and stand alone training programs for all Residence Assistants at the beginning of both Fall and Spring semesters on a numerous safety related subjects including personal safety, sexual assault prevention and University Police emergency services. We participated in the training of all Campus Life building managers for new and returning staff. We co-sponsored several on-going programs in cooperation with our Lifestyles Center. Below find some of the committees, projects, task forces and programs that the members of our department have been involved in the year 2007. Alcohol and Other Drug Task Force In 2007 we continued to have a standing robust committee through the leadership of Dean Scharfenberger for this active committee.

Pandemic Flu Committee This standing committee is working on a detailed plan for dealing with the pandemic influenza should we have an outbreak in this area of the country. This work will continue into 2008. Personal Safety Task Force The Personal Safety Task Force is a standing committee comprised of student representatives, college staff and faculty and Service Providers from the community charged with prevention education surrounding the topic of personal safety and serving as a sounding board for the campus around the topic of safety. The Sexual Assault Sub-Committee is an off-shoot grass roots group of the PSTF. In the Fall of 2007 University Police staff worked with this committee to host a large scale prevention education event in the quad on personal safety services in Oswego County. Many hundreds of students participated in this large scale event. Your Personal Safety, A Report to the Community is our annual report compiled every year and disseminated to the campus community to every student, Faculty and staff member either electronically or in hard copy regarding safety and prevention, crime statistics and resources. This booklet is the colleges compliance document for the Federal Jeanne Clery Act. UP personnel provide oversite in conjunction with the OJA hearing officer for the text revisions and the insertion of our annual statistics for each years printing which occurs in the Summer. UPD is the repository of the report on our web site and is the liaison between the college and the Department of Education for the dissemination of the annual report to be posted on the DOE web site. In 2007 Chief Adam and Cathy Santos went to a comprehensive update seminar on the Clery laws. Sexual Harassment Committee This committee re-formed in 1999 to update and refine the colleges policy on Sexual Harassment. This is a standing committee, and UP personnel represent our unionized officers on this committee. The Rape Aggression Defense Program or RAD, is a dynamic, pro-active program consisting of prevention information and realistic self-defense tactics and techniques. The RAD System is a comprehensive, nationally recognized course of self-defense for women that begins with awareness, prevention, risk reduction and avoidance, while progressing onto the basics of hands-on defense training. In 2007 RAD provided 16 hour blocks of instruction in 4 programs to a total of over 70 women for academic credit. Students came to us from the ranks of our faculty, professional staff, SUNY Oswego students and citizens from the greater Oswego area. Employee Recognition Committee The Employee Recognition Committee is an annual event to recognize the classified employees of OSU. SUNY Oswego Parking Committee The Oswego State University Parking Committee is a standing group of faculty, staff and student representatives who continually evaluate the OSU parking rules, regulations, procedures and policies. This group is the body responsible for the modification of any parking rules which are amended locally via the Presidents Council. This committee is chaired by UP personnel. NYSPA New York State Parking Association UP personnel are regular members of NYSPA in addition UP provides personnel to plan the annual conference and provide programming on a variety of topics.

Police Liaison Project The Police Liaison Project is a community police program that pairs each OSU Residence Hall with an individual Oswego State University Police Officer. All UP Officers are assigned to a particular residence hall. Residence Hall staff then requests their assigned officer for Public Service programs of an educational nature. Officers attend Hall Council meetings, staff meetings, programs etc Officers from UP actively participate in the PLP program and provide quality educational programming for the resident campus community on a variety of topics. For a comprehensive listing of the Community Service programs and presentations made available for 2007 go to: www.oswego.edu/police SAPB Student Association Programming Board The SAPB committee requested UP personnel to serve as an advisor for the academic year 2007. This group provides the large scale concerts, academic lectures and special events for SUNY Oswego including May Day and Cinevisions. Speakers Bureau of Oswego County Members from our department were asked to speak on various Law Enforcement and personal safety topics at various locations throughout the county. Programs about personal safety and aggressive driving, etc. were conducted in the Phoenix, Oswego, Mexico, Fulton, and Central Square High Schools and in an on-going manner once a semester at each school including a summer session at each respective school. Officers from UP participated in mock interviews at Oswego High School and participated in numerous other events in 2006 on campus and throughout the county. SAVAC advisor positions. Two UPD officers volunteered in the Fall of 2007 to be the advisors for our SAVAC ambulance corp for this academic year. Faculty Requests for Guest Speakers from UPD Officers from University Police are requested to be presenters on a variety of law enforcement related issues and topics in the classroom in every academic year, especially through the Public Justice Department, where we also host internships in the Fall and Spring semesters. UPD also provides ride-a-long programs for students interested in a Public Justice career.. Career Nights and Open Houses for SUNY Oswego, Community Service Fairs etc. Officers from University Police represent our agency and provide recruitment information to students and visitors in our community in an on-going manner via the above venues. Oswego County 911 Personnel from NYSUP serve on this county wide committee along with the other police agencies from Oswego County. Oswego County Traffic Safety Board This Board was created in the mid 1990's to evaluate the traffic safety needs of Oswego County and to coordinate traffic safety efforts within the county. NYSUP has maintained a representative on the Board since its creation. UP staff actively participate in child safety seat check programs throughout the County during the year every year.

Oswego County Critical Incident Stress De-briefing team NYSUP has two members on this team who volunteer their time to help emergency workers and others cope with the aftereffects of their response to critical incidents. Critical Incident Training - Members from the University Police provide table-top exercises upon request to provide realistic training scenarios for our emergency response teams of service providers. New Faculty Orientation Committee NYSUP provides a representative for this committee to aide in the orientation of new faculty on legal issues such as FERPA, HIPPA and ADA and police services. EAP - Employee Assistance Program EAP is a state wide program that provides referral information to all campus employees as well as educational programming on a variety of topics.

2007 Uniform Traffic Ticket Report Lt. Michael Taylor A total of 374 New York State Uniform Traffic Tickets (TSLEDS) were issued by the New York State University Police at Oswego in 2007. This represents an increase of 86 tickets from 2006. Approximately eighteen percent (18%) or 66 of these tickets were for speeding on campus roadways. Motor vehicle operators charged with speeding averaged 39 miles per hour or 19 miles per hour over the posted speed limit (20 miles per hour). There was no increase in violator speed from 2006 and has remained at that low average since 1995. University Police patrols continue to seek reductions in the risk of motor vehicle accidents and work to provide safe passage on campus roads and adjacent pedestrian walkways, thus maintaining a low violator speed. Violator speed is affected by numerous factors including, but not limited to: the use of campus roadways in the summer months as alternative routes to other venues near campus, lack of familiarity with campus roads and speed limits by those not affiliated with the campus community, and by operators lack of attention to speed signs and/or road conditions. Efforts by University Police patrols to diligently enforce all Vehicle and Traffic Laws of New York State on our campus roadways and adjacent highways has helped to maintain a low average violator speed. Other violations of law include, but are not limited to: failure to stop/yield, driving the wrong way on a one way street or traffic circle, driving on sidewalks, operation of a vehicle while a license or registration is suspended or revoked, seat belt violations, cell phone violations, lighting and equipment violations and the most severe violationdriving While Intoxicated. Subsequent to stopping violators, it is often revealed that an operator may have outstanding warrants, may be in possession of drugs or weapons, or may be a suspect in a current dispute or investigation by our department or other agencies. Twenty-six persons were arrested for driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs in 2007, a decrease of two from 2006. The legal limit for Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) is.08% and above. The legal limit for Driving While Ability Impaired is.05% to.07%. The average blood-alcohol content (BAC) of violators was.13%. This was the same average BAC as 2006. Two of the aforementioned violators refused to take a blood-alcohol test which resulted in their immediate suspension and subsequent revocation of their driving privileges. Apprehension of DWI offenders is the direct result of University Police commitment to keeping campus roads safe. Strict enforcement of New York States Vehicle and Traffic Laws by University Police Officers has resulted in DWI apprehension by both day and night patrols. Most DWI arrests are made between the hours of 3:00 p.m and 6:00 a.m. when campus pedestrian and vehicular traffic are most susceptible to lighting, weather conditions and other factors. Over 73% of all Uniformed Traffic Tickets were issued during this time period. University Police is committed to keeping our roadways and adjacent pedestrian venues safe from DWI offenders and to educate the community of the perils of drinking and driving. Approximately $38, 300 in fines were collected as a result of the convictions of violators of New York States Vehicle and Traffic Laws on campus. Nearly $10, 900 of those fines were the result of arrest and subsequent conviction of DWI offenders. Those fines are returned to Oswego Countys STOP DWI which are in turn used for detection and apprehension programs designed to deter and help eliminate drunk driving. Education and public awareness are integral parts of the STOP DWI program. University Police participation in STOP DWI is crucial to our efforts to make campus roads safe. 2004 2005 2006 2007
