Our Commitment To Safety

Cecil College understands the concerns of students, staff and the community about the safety of individuals on a college campus and accepts the responsibility to employ security measures to ensure that all students and staff enjoy their years at Cecil College as free as possible from threats to their safety or well being. Cecil College is dedicated to keeping the campus a secure and healthy place to work and study.

Safety and Security at Cecil College

Cecil College is a community of an estimated 2,600 credit students and over 5,000 continuing education students located in a changing rural community in northeastern Maryland, with a combined population of more than 88,850 residents. As part of that larger community, the College shares many of the same interests and problems, including concerns about crime. Cecil has experienced minimal problems to date related to crimes on campus. Life on any college campus, however, is subject to some of the same risks and problems as life elsewhere.

This website is designed to help assist you in maintaining a safe environment for you and your property. We want you to become familiar with the College community, to understand the security policies and procedures that help promote safety and respect for others on the Cecil College campus, and to take appropriate precautions to minimize risk.
