T.S.U.P.D. Mission Statement

To provide a safe and secure educational environment through collaborative interaction with students, faculty and staff recognizing the multicultural and diverse university community.
 
The TSU Police Department is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and is located on West Heiman Street in the General Services Building. If you are on campus and have an emergency, please contact the TSU Police Department at (615) 963-5171 instead of 911. We advise this to avoid any delays with services. A certified trained TSU police dispatcher will contact the necessary emergency services to assist you.

Crime Prevention Tips

  • Always be aware of your surroundings and people around you.
  • Do not walk alone. After dark, use the shuttle service.

  • Have your keys in hand before you reach your vehicle.
  • Keep your vehicle doors locked and avoid leaving valuables out.
