* At the State of Minnesota, employees play a critical role in developing policies, providing essential services, and working to improve the well-being and quality of life for all Minnesotans. The State of Minnesota is committed to equity and inclusion, and invests in employees by providing benefits, support resources, and training and development opportunities.

The Campus Public Safety Officer is responsible for preserving a safe, secure, and welcoming environment throughout Minneapolis College by protecting people, property, and the educational mission of the College.

+ Coordinate with police, fire, emergency medical services, and campus partners during emergencies, evacuations, sheltering operations, and critical incidents.

+ Provide work direction and mentorship to Student Safety Monitors and participate in training, emergency exercises, professional development, and departmental safety initiatives.
