Published annually on CSI’s web page, and distributed by mail to all employees and student upon request. The pamphlet is available at the CSI security office located in the Maintenance building on CSI campus, it is also published in the student handbook.

Campus Safety

The College of Southern Idaho is a student-centered institution designed to provide a complete educational experience for all students. The goal of the college security staff is to assist in that process to make certain that the campus is a safe and orderly environment. To this end, the department is staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week and can be reached at all times by telephone. Our on-campus extension is 6605. In the event of an emergency our on-campus extension is 2222. The CSI Security Office is located in the Maintenance Building just north of the dormitory on the campus loop road.

The college campus is considered a pedestrian campus; therefore, people on foot always have the right of way and vehicle traffic is expected to yield. For the sake of pedestrian safety, we have established campus driving regulations that are more restrictive than those for the public city streets. Driving regulations are published, widely circulated, and strictly enforced.

The Security Department patrols the campus and checks all buildings on a regular basis. Felonies and serious crimes are reported to the appropriate police agency by the security staff. We request that students, employees, and visitors report all crimes that occur on the CSI campus or property to the Security Department. An Emergency Procedures manual containing information about responding to a crime and other emergency situations is located and readily available in all faculty and staff offices and all sections of the dormitory on campus. Security asks that each employee with a key remember to lock the building you unlocked when entering on Holidays; after hours and weekends notify Security that you are in the building.

CSI Security officers do not carry firearms and have limited police powers. Only law enforcement officers are allowed to possess and/or carry firearms on campus. Students arriving on campus with firearms in their possession must check them in with security and may pick them up when ready to leave campus. Any exception must be approved by CSI Security.

Crime Prevention

Security asks that each employee with a key remember to lock the building you unlocked when entering on Holidays, after hours and weekends.CSI employees and their passengers are directed to wear seat belts in all seating positions while driving or riding in college owned vehicles if that vehicle is so equipped with safety restraints. Employees are encouraged to use seat belts while operating their personal vehicles, whether for college or personal use, to enhance the safety of themselves and their families. In the event of an immediate safety issue to the campus community, bulletins would be placed in all buildings and posted electronically on the web site and email All students and staff are encouraged to call security for safety escorts and to report any civil and criminal activities that could progress onto the campus.

Substance Abuse Policy

College policy as established and approved by the student body and the Board of Trustees prohibits the sale, use, or possession of alcohol or illegal drugs of any kind on campus or at college functions. A pamphlet outlining the CSI Drug-Free and Alcohol-Free Campus Policy is distributed to all CSI students at registration. Incidents involving alcohol or drugs will be reported to the Student Information Director and to appropriate authorities if a violation of the law has occurred. Alcohol and drug abuse educational information is made easily available to students through the Student Health Center, Counseling Center, Student Support Programs and Campus Awareness Events.

Sexual Assault & Harrassment

Information regarding sexual harassment, sexual assault, and rape awareness policies and procedures can be found in the CSI Catalog, Student Handbook, Student Code of Conduct, and specific brochures available in most campus offices. Educational materials and professional consultation are available to students and staff in many offices. Awareness activities and programs are sponsored annually by the institution and the Associated Student Body.

Traffic Court

The College of Southern Idaho has established a traffic court for arbitration purposes. The traffic court is operated by the Student Senate at CSI, and is the only means to obtain a dismissal of a CSI traffic citation. If you fail to appear within the time allowed for your appearance, judgment will be entered against you and the set fine for the violations must be paid. Failure to pay the traffic fines could result in a hold on student transcripts, deductions from an employee's paycheck, trespass notice given or vehicle towed. The traffic courty meets on a regular-scheduled monthly basis. For more information call Student Senate at 732-6690.
