Reduced HSC Police Department Hours – Effective Immediately

Due to the current staffing levels that the HSC campus is experiencing, the HSC Police Department has implemented a reduced schedule, which will be in effect until further notice. Police Officers will be on campus conducting active patrols between the hours of 6:30 am – 12:30 am (or 18 hours per day/7 days per week). It is important to note that HSC Dispatch personnel will continue to work on campus 24 hours/7 days per week.

For emergencies that occur on campus, you have two options: you may dial 911 or 817/735-2600. For non-emergency calls you may dial 817/735-2210.

Please remember the following:

1) State your location and telephone number to the emergency personnel during a 911/emergency call.

2) Have an alternate means of contacting 911 emergency services if a campus landline is unavailable, such as a cell phone.

If you have any questions, please contact the HSC Police Department by email at Police_Dispatch@unthsc.edu.

We appreciate your understanding with this transition and will update the campus community once the hours return to 24/7.

Thank you,

Jeff Arrington
Chief of Police
