ATTENTION

STUDENTS, PROSPECTIVE STUDENTS, PARENTS, FACULTY AND STAFF

GET INFORMATION FROM UPD SENT TO YOUR EMAIL AND CELL PHONE

Students, prospective students, parents, faculty and staff can now get information sent from the university police department directly to your email and cell phone. This is different from KatSafe which is already in place. KatSafe is for emergencies only! This new system will allow you to receive important information that is sent out by UPD. Examples will be information about recent crimes in the university area, ways to better protect yourself, programs that are being offered, and any other important information that our community needs to learn about.

Receive Trusted, Up-To-Date University Public Safety and Community Information directly from our department by text message and email. No Cost, simple, reliable.

You will need to input the required fields and then register for information from the Sam Houston State University Police Department. Once registered, you will receive all information as published by UPD. For any questions about this new program, please contact Deputy Chief James Fitch via email at jaf018@shsu.edu or by phone at 936-294-1794.

Programs Offered

The University Police Department is now offering two new on-line programs! Students and faculty may now register any electronic items, with their serial numbers, that they wish. This information will then be saved in a database by the police department so that if the item is ever lost or stolen, the University Police Department will be able to enter these items into the local and national crime databases so that your property can possibly be found and returned, as well as the actor being brought to justice.

In addition, individuals will be able to report any criminal activity on and around the University community anonymously with the use of the Silent Witness program.

Both of these programs can be accessed on the forms page of this web site.
