The college is committed to keeping the campus safe. Trinity has a security officer during the day and a safety officer at night. Because we are committed to keeping the college safe, we have partnered with local off-duty sheriff’s department deputies to provide additional security during the night and on weekends. The sheriff’s department deputies have a visible presence enhancing campus safety and security.

The college has a safety and awareness guide and an emergency procedure manual. The safety and awareness guide provides campus safety tips, while the emergency procedure manual offers direction for issues such as fires and natural disasters. In addition, the campus safety and security page on the college website provides critical safety information. Structural security enhancements include key fob access for residential buildings, regular building walkthroughs by security, and gate access to campus property to keep the college safe.

Since the college is a Title IV institution, it must have a Title IX coordinator. The Title IX coordinator oversees communications about safety from abuse and assault. The college also invites local self-defense experts to train individuals on college safety tips.
