Safety, Security & Emergency Prep
South Seattle College has a staff of full and part-time security officers who patrol the college buildings and parking lots (seven days a week, day and evening hours), and can provide emergency and non-emergency assistance to students, employees, and visitors.
Safety & Security

Safety Tips
Below are a few safety and security tips that can reduce the possibility of crime on campus.
When you leave your office or classroom please make sure that the doors are closed and locked. Lock it or lose it.
Secure you valuables.  Lock purses or other items of value in a desk or file cabinet drawer. Theft is a crime of opportunity; don’t give a thief the opportunity.
If you see something or someone suspicious, contact Campus Security at 206-235-0911 or extension 5157.  See it, Hear it, Report it.
Security Services
First Aid
Security staff are qualified to provide CPR, treat minor injuries, provide care until paramedics arrive. We cannot provide transportation for injured persons. In the case of a serious or life threatening injury please call 911 first then contact Security. If you do seek medical attention from a hospital or other health care provider for a work related injury you should fill out a Labor and Industries Employee Injury Report provided by your health care provider. You should also contact your supervisor to fill out a Supervisors Report of Injury (report forms available in the security office) at your earliest convenience.

Lost items are located in the
Jerry Brockey Center
Room 135 (JMB 135).
