The primary purpose of uniformed campus roving patrol is the elimination of the actual opportunity, or the belief that the opportunity, for successful criminal conduct exists and to provide immediate and appropriate response to any individual who may need assistance. Close and careful observation is the principal function of every on-campus roving patrol officer. Careful observation enables the conscientious on-campus security officer to render assistance to individuals in need while at the same time eliminating the opportunity for criminal activity. In addition, foot patrols provide valuable interaction between the RUSVM Safety and Security Department and the RUSVM community. This interaction builds trust and understanding between the officers and the members of the RUSVM community. It is the responsibility of each and every security officer assigned to a foot patrol to act in a manner consistent with his/her position, friendly, courteous, professional and observant at all times.
