Emergency Notification
Upon confirmation that a significant emergency or dangerous situation involving an immediate threat to the health or safety of students or employees is occurring on campus or on nearby city streets, CCS will provide notification to the campus community. Please see the complete Emergency Notification Policy in the College’s Policy Database.
Card Access to Campus Facilities
CCS’s SmART Card for academic and residential buildings is intended to provide greater security and access control throughout the campus. Students, faculty and staff are required to present a CCS identification card directly in front of a proximity reader or, during regular business hours, must show the identification card to Campus Safety personnel upon request. Authorized cardholders will be granted access. Proximity readers can detect when a reader-controlled door is forced or held open. If a door is forced or held open for too long, it will alert Campus Safety. Card access falls under the umbrella of Campus Safety and is subject to the rules and regulations of Campus Safety relative to access privileges.

The CCS campus is designed to serve the needs of the CCS community, and several areas of the campus are open to the public as well. These areas include the CCS galleries, the CCS Bookstore, and certain dining facilities among other locations. The Conference Center located on the 11th floor of the Taubman Center is often used as a public venue, in which case a member of the safety staff is stationed in the lobby to monitor entry and exit by members of the public.

Building security is the responsibility of the entire community; please do not treat it lightly. If you observe a door that is propped open, close it and advise the Campus Safety Dispatch Office at 313-664-7444 (or 1444). If you are issued keys, be aware of the responsibility that comes with them. A missing key could be used by anyone at any time. CCS residence halls and campus buildings are accessible with a CCS ID card. If your CCS ID card is lost or stolen, please report it to Campus Safety immediately. Your missing card will need to be deactivated to prevent someone who finds it from gaining unauthorized access to CCS buildings. Campus Safety will issue you a new card to replace your lost or stolen card.

Daily Crime, Hazing, and Fire Logs
The College maintains written, easily understood daily logs for crimes, hazing incidents, and fires, meeting all Clery Act requirements. Each log records incidents by the date reported and includes the nature, date, time, general location, and disposition of the complaint, if known. Entries are made within two business days of a report, unless disclosure is prohibited by law or would jeopardize the confidentiality of the victim. For crime and hazing logs, CCS may withhold information if there is clear and convincing evidence that release would jeopardize an ongoing investigation, the safety of an individual, cause a suspect to flee or evade detection, or result in the destruction of evidence. Any withheld information will be disclosed once the adverse effect is no longer likely to occur.

Logs covering the past 60 days are available for public inspection during normal business hours. Any portion older than 60 days is available within two business days of a request. For purposes of this section, “business day” means Monday through Friday, excluding any day when the institution is closed.

  • Hazing and Fire Logs: Contact the Assistant Vice President of Campus Life at 313-664-7675
