| Welcome to the Tufts University Department of Public & Environmental Safety. The development of this home page was the collective effort of many members of our staff. I am grateful for their contributions. Our department consists of several organizations responsible for safety, security and loss prevention on the three campuses of Tufts University. Among these are the Tufts University Police Department, Environmental Health & Safety, Fire Safety, Risk Management & Insurance, and Tufts Emergency Medical Services (TEMS). In addition, Public Safety Administrative Services encompasses parking services, shuttle services, photo ID cards, and access systems. As you review our home page, I would appreciate hearing from you on any suggestions to improve this presentation. Sincerely,
John M. King, CPP | Hurricane Season began on June 1st. Now is the time to prepare for the possibility of storms which are more likely to visit Massachusetts in the later part of the summer.

Tufts Police Re-accredited On January 8, 2009 the Massachusetts Police Accreditation Commission voted to re-accredit the Tufts University Police Department. TUPD was accredited in 2005, and had to show continued conformance to over 270 professional standards. TUPD remains one of only three campus police departments accredited in Mass.
