What type of police or security force does the University have?

Ohio State has a professional University Police department that provides the same police services to the campus as city police do in various Ohio towns and cities. Trained officers are available all year round 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The non-emergency phone number for University Police is 292-2121. The Web site for more information is http://www.ps.ohio-state.edu. In addition, University Security Services provides random patrols in residence hall areas.
