There are opportunities for students on the editorial, art, and business staffs. A subscription to The Beacon is paid for through University funds. It is distributed to students. The University also maintains an F.M. radio station, WCLH, which broadcasts daily at 90.7 MHz and a cable television channel, broadcast on Service Electric. Interested students are invited to participate. Office of Public Safety Contact: Jerry Rebo, Manager The Office of Public Safety is part of the Facilities Department which is led by a director who reports to the Vice President of Finance and General Counsel. The administrative offices and Public Safety Desk are located on the ground floor of the parking garage located at 148 South Main St.. The Office of Public Safety provides uniformed services twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. This office consists of a Manager, 12 fulltime officers and 2 part-time officers. Public Safety Officers make regular patrols of the University grounds and buildings by foot, bike and vehicle. 13
The Office of Public Safety employees attend mandatory training sessions. They are PA Act 235 certified and have detaining powers. All Public Safety Officers are apprised of and enforce the policies governing Wilkes University. Each employee is trained in basic emergency medical procedures, first aid, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation within six months from the date of hire. The University Public Safety Department has several officers who have Pennsylvania Act 120 training, which is required of municipal police officers in the state. These officers carry firearms while on duty. Act 120 training requires more than 700 hours of comprehensive training covering every aspect of law enforcement and firearm management. The Office of Public Safety cooperates with state and local law enforcement agencies and maintains an excellent working relationship with the Wilkes-Barre and Edwardsville Police Departments. Incidents involving violence, property loss or felonies are reported to the local police department. All incidents are recorded and kept on file. Everyone is encouraged to report any and all incidents to the Office of Public Safety. A member of the department is then sent to the scene where he/she evaluates the situation and takes the appropriate action. In the event of an emergency, prompt communication is used to inform the appropriate administrators. The Public Safety Office is a part of the University Service Center and is linked to all University buildings by calling extension 4999 or ‘0’ for assistance. Wilkes University is considered private property and access to its facilities or its programs is restricted to those individuals who have justification for being present on campus. Identification and monitoring procedures are utilized when required. The Department of Campus Support Services offers several safety and security programs to its students, faculty, staff, and administration. C.A.R.E. - Campus Advisory Reporting Extension “Campus Advisory Reporting Extension” or “CARE” is a program designed to allow students and employees to phone in anonymous information regarding safety and security concerns (e.g. potentially dangerous situations, suspected criminal activity, etc.) both on campus and in the community. If making the report from an on-campus phone, dial CARE (2273); or if making a report from an off-campus phone, dial 408-CARE (408-2273). All calls will be fielded by a digital answering machine which will not be able to identify the incoming caller’s extension or phone number. Each message received will be handled by one of the Managers or by the Director for Capital Projects and Planning, depending on the concern. Additionally, each message will be logged and given its due attention and follow-up. 14
