SPECIAL CONSTABLES About Special Constables What are U of T Special Constables? The Special Constables who serve with the University of Toronto Campus Safety are dedicated to creating a safe, secure and equitable environment for those who work, live and study on the St. George Campus. Special Constables are granted enhanced authority by the province through the Toronto Police Services Board, which effectively gives members of the organization the authority of a police officer while on campus. This brings expanded powers to deal with criminal and provincial offences, thereby requiring less Toronto Police presence on campus. The Policy on Policing grants authority to enforce university policy, bringing infractions to the attention of the academic or departmental leaders. The nature of work performed on campus provides the potential for emergencies of a unique nature. Special Constables are specially trained to deal with campus occurrences that require sensitivity and discretion when responding to community needs. The St. George campus is a unique university community within an urban setting. Consequently, our Special Constables are specially trained to respond to a variety of campus occurrences with sensitivity, discretion and authority. Special Constables patrol the campus by foot, car and bicycle in order to provide a visible presence. Our Special Constable Training Program is designed to provide our Special Constables with a sound knowledge of the laws and procedures that front-line officers are required to apply in the performance of their duties. Training includes but is not limited to the areas of Crime Prevention, Law Enforcement, Assistance to victims of crime, and Emergency response. What authority does a U of T Special Constable have? Special Constables are appointed by the Province of Ontario and managed by the Toronto Police Services Board. Special Constables have the authority of a police officer on or in relation to University property.
