DEPARTMENT OF CAMPUS SAFETY

Welcome to the Navarro College Department of Public Safety (NCDPS) website. The Navarro College Department of Public Safety is a community-oriented police agency and as such is dedicated to providing the best possible service to the faculty, staff, students, and visitors.

Navarro College has a progressive Campus Law enforcement agency which currently employs 14 full-time law enforcement officers that provide twenty-four-hour patrol and protection at the Navarro College-Corsicana location. Navarro College-Waxahachie has Navarro College police officers on duty any time classes are in session. Navarro College has police officers in addition to armed security officers at the Navarro College-Midlothian location and armed security at the Mexia location.

NCDPS officers are licensed peace officers as defined under the laws of the State of Texas and thereby have the authority as peace officers. They are vested with all the powers and privileges, of Texas Peace Officers within the county, including all streets and roads in which the College owns, rents, leases or otherwise controls. The department’s law enforcement authority is defined within the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure as well as Chapter 51 of the Texas Education Code.

The Navarro College Department of Public Safety is dedicated to enhancing the opportunity for students, faculty and staff to participate in the educational experience by providing a safe and orderly environment. For more visibility and officer approachability, the Navarro College Department of Public Safety uses a Bicycle Unit as part of its daily patrol. Our department is committed to the prevention of crime and the protection of life and property and we invite the College community to become involved with us.
