Summary findings
In 1995, BJS surveyed campus law enforcement agencies serving 4-year universities and colleges
with 2,500 or more students.
- More than 9 in 10 public institutions used sworn police officers, compared
to less than half of the private institutions.
- Most sworn campus police officers were armed, and overall about two-thirds of the campuses had armed officers.
- Law enforcement agencies serving private campuses had operating costs of about $181 per student during
fiscal 1994 compared to $94 per student on public campuses.
- Nearly all of the agencies operated a general crime prevention program, and about two-thirds
had rape prevention programs. About half operated programs to combat drug and alcohol
abuse.
