Campus Police

On behalf of the Quinsigamond Community College Police Department, I welcome your interest in our accredited police department. We are extremely proud of our community and our officers, who each and every day work to ensure the college community’s safety. Our department is comprised of the many divisions which include Patrol, Communications, Detectives, Community Resource/Outreach, K-9, Honor Guard, Security and Administrative. Collectively, these divisions work together seamlessly to provide QCC with the highest of community policing.

Our philosophy is that preventing crime and being proactive in all our safety measures is the key to maintaining a campus that offers a safe place of learning and high-quality education. We believe in the Community Oriented Policing approach in dealing with the many challenges we face daily. Community Policing is a philosophy of becoming involved with the people you serve and working together as a team to solve the problems that lead to crime. Our department takes this philosophy to heart.

The QCC PD takes great pride in being accountable and accessible to the unique and diverse needs of the college community. We place a high value upon teamwork and expect our officers to act as role models and leaders in all they do. We recognize we are in an ever-changing environment and therefore continuously evaluate the quality, efficiency and appropriateness of our efforts. We always welcome feedback and see it as an opportunity to improve. We value diversity and strive to treat everyone with respect and dignity. We are dedicated to providing professional, fair and impartial law enforcement service to the entire college community.

To provide efficient and effective service to our college community, the QCC PD is fully committed to building and maintaining meaningful partnerships within the campus, throughout the adjoining neighborhoods, and with all relevant local, state and federal law enforcement agencies.

On behalf of the entire QCC PD, I want to thank you for your continued support of our department.

Sincerely,

Stephen D. DiGiovanni

Chief of Police

On October 12, 2017, the Quinsigamond Community College Police Department received state Accreditation from the Massachusetts Police Accreditation Commission. On January 29, 2021, the Department was Re-Accredited by the Commission. Accreditation is a self-initiated evaluation process by which police departments strive to meet and maintain standards that have been established for the profession, by the profession. These carefully selected standards reflect critical areas of police management, operations, and technical support activities. They cover areas such as policy development, emergency response planning, training, communications, property and evidence handling, use of force, vehicular pursuit, prisoner transportation, and holding facilities. The program not only sets standards for the law enforcement profession but also for the delivery of police services to the citizens of the commonwealth. Quinsigamond Campus Police Department is the first Community College to achieve this status.

The Campus Police Department is currently staffed by a Chief of Police, Deputy Chief of Administration, Deputy Chief of Operations, three Patrol Sergeants, one Detective, one Community Resource Officer, eight full-time Police Officers, four Security Officers and two dispatchers. Campus Police Officers receive basic and in-service training from the Massachusetts State Police Academy and or the Municipal Police Training Committee. They also receive specialized training from various police agencies throughout the state and country.

Campus Police Officers receive their authority from Chapter 22C of Massachusetts General Laws, Section 63 and have special state police arrest powers on land and buildings owned, or used by the institution. All sworn officers meet the State POST standards of training and are certified. The officers are charged with the enforcement of all state and local laws as well as any College regulations and policies on College property. The department works closely with state, city and federal police and fire agencies to assist with the safety of the College community.
