Cumberland University Security strives to provide a safe environment for students, faculty, staff, and visitors on campus. We patrol campus 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. They are always available to assist you by calling 615-476-3061.

Cumberland University Security serves as the primary first responder to all emergency incidents on campus. They also work in conjunction with local police, fire, and emergency medical services to resolve emergency situations on campus.

They are committed to providing high quality service as an integral, respected and trusted part of the Cumberland University community.

To report a crime contact Security at 615-476-3061 (non-emergencies). Dial 9-1-1- for emergencies only, or use the Code Blue telephones located in the Residential Halls, Parking Lots or by some buildings.

Any suspicious activity or person seen in the parking lots or loitering around vehicles, inside buildings or around the Residential Halls should be reported to Security.

In addition, you may report a crime to the following areas:

Campus Watch is an anonymous tip line for students, faculty, and staff. If you observe something that you feel needs to be reported (but you’d like to remain anonymous), just call 615-453-6333 and Cumberland University Security will follow up on your tip. As always, in cases of immediate emergencies, call 911.

We have several designated parking areas around campus. Be sure to register your vehicle and pick up your parking decal from the Residence Life Office located in Labry Hall.
