Requesting Public Safety for Special Events

Extracurricular activities are an important part of the college experience, so Public Safety wants to support these events by contracting our Public Safety services when requested. To request Public Safety officers for your event, email pubsafe@stcloudstate.edu to submit a request to meet with a Public Safety supervisor to discuss the event and your needs.

A few things to know about requesting Public Safety officers:

  • The cost is $24 per hour per officer for university organizations and $30 per hour per officer for non-university events and organizations. Rates will be effective July 1, 2026.
  • The Public Safety Department reserves the right to determine the appropriate number of officers for the event.
  • The request should be made a minimum of two weeks before the event.
  • Public Safety officers are required at all functions held in the Atwood Memorial Center after midnight.
