Public Safety 2.0

Welcome to the upgraded (and beta) Loyola Marymount University Department of Public Safety (DPS) Web site!

In addition to the Chief, the department employs a Deputy Chief, four Captains, six Lieutenants, Parking Manager, two Investigators, a lead communication officer, and an office manager. The department also maintains a staff of several contract security officers who conduct foot and vehicle patrols of the campus, assist students, faculty, and staff with residence halls and offices accesses, man the Leavey Gate entrance, and other responsibilities as needed.
