State and Local Police, Fire, and Emergency Services
Call 911
Here in midtown, the well equipped, trained, and experienced NYC police, fire, and emergency
medical services are readily available and the college never hesitates to call for their assistance.
The
New York City Police Department will be called routinely and immediately in matters involving violent threats or
actions, the actual or reported possession of dangerous weapons, and any felonious or victimizing
crime. The City University of New York also has a Memorandum of Understanding with the NYPD agreeing to cooperate fully with the other and coordinate their investigations of any reported violent felony offense occurring at or on the grounds of the University as well as reports of missing students.
The college has the right, as does any person including every person enrolled or employed by
the college, to directly consult with, or make complaints to the NYPD or any other agency. The
Graduate Center has an excellent working relationship with the New York State Police, New York
City Police Department and the Midtown South precinct which allows the college to be informed of
crimes reported directly to the NYPD.
