Police Services

TCU Police officers are fully-qualified, licensed, and experienced law enforcement officers with full police powers of arrest for offenses committed on property owned or controlled by TCU. All TCU Police officers undergo specialized, required training to enable a better understanding of the nature of policing on a private university campus. Our patrol section consists of automobile, bicycle, and foot patrol units. Our Officers respond to all calls for police service on campus and the units are available 24 hours a day.

Our marked patrol cars, bicycles, and foot patrols ensure high visibility while covering all areas of the TCU campus and provide around-the-clock protection of campus community members and resources on property owned or controlled by Texas Christian University. Other police services include safety escorts, additional escorts by “Froggie 5-0”, emergency vehicle assistance, building lock and unlock functions, crime watch, self-defense seminars, active shooter response training, and crime prevention.

The TCU Police department employs three full-time detectives to investigate crimes committed on campus. In most cases, TCU detectives can complete the investigation and bring charges when appropriate. TCU Police and Fort Worth Police will work together on serious crimes that occur on campus.
