The Oxford College Police Department, a division of Emory Community Services Division, provides a variety of services to the Emory community, but our primary mission remains that of making the campus a safe place in which to live, study and work.

Oxford College of Emory University has maintained a safe low-crime environment for our students and all those who work here.
