Message from Campus Safety
As the fall semester moves along, we want to say thanks for observing the speed limits on Campus, for picking up and dropping off utilizing the pickup/drop off turn out (painted white) and for not stopping along the red curbs, as this keeps traffic flowing smoothly and keeps students safe.
A note for students who did not purchase a semester parking pass and chose to purchase a daily parking pass from our machines at the Canyon Country Campus: If the machine in the lot you choose to park in is OUT OF ORDER, you can park in any student space within that lot, and you will NOT be ticketed. Campus Safety will only enforce staff, handicap and fire lane violations.
As always, arrive early, drive safe, eat and hydrate!
Campus Safety Team
Visit us in Building 511, or contact us at 661-362-3977
Thank you, and be SAFE!
