University Police Guards

The Guard corps of UPD is comprised of student workers who have been specifically trained to serve the LETU community in accordance with the University’s rules, regulations and policies. This training enables them to resolve a wide variety of issues, provide professional services and facilitate most activities of the campus community. These guards work in conjunction with and many times independent of UPD police officers and in all cases represent the security and law enforcement interests of the university.
