On behalf of the Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder and city of Boulder police departments, we join together to celebrate the start of a new academic year. Our departments are committed to working together to keep everyone in the Boulder community safe.
The Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder Police Department is a full-service operation and responds to university concerns around the clock. Learn about campus safety resources, make sure you're registered to receive Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØAlerts via your mobile number and more.
Campus officials will continue to send emergency alerts for off-campus incidents that pose a threat to life and safety, partnering with the Boulder Police Department to share confirmed information quickly.
The Office of Information Technology works hard to stop phishing scams, but we need your help to be proactive in identifying, reporting and stopping attacks. A recent scam plays on what most students need: a job and money.
Newly installed cameras at Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder will help police detect when vehicles connected to suspects or crimes enter campus, helping initiate proactive investigations.
As students return to campus in late August, Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder Police and the Center for the Prevention and Study of Violence will be adding a new tool to their violence prevention toolkit called the Targeted Violence Lethality Assessment Protocol, or TV-LAP.
Summertime means fun on the Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder campus. This year’s events include Dead & Company concerts July 1–3 and a Fourth of July drone show, all at Folsom Field. Plan ahead for heavy traffic and crowds to get to the fun on time.
