Ucsd Pd Policy Manual

UC San Diego Police Department UC San Diego PD Policy Manual CHIEF’S PREFACE A well-written, proactive, and professional policy manual is essential to meet the expectations of a police department in an increasingly complex, ever-changing society. These policies, coupled with professional training and a dedication to duty, will provide you with the tools to meet the needs of our campus community. This manual contains the most current policies and best practices, and is designed to incorporate and be compatible with UC systemwide policies and protocols, as well as San Diego County law enforcement protocols. The UCSD Police Department's policy manual is a living document that is subject to constant change, new requirements, and new regulations. The nature of police work is such that no policy manual can address every situation that our department may encounter. When faced with these situations, members of our department are expected to use good faith and good judgment in their decision-making. All members of this department are held to the highest standards of conduct, personal integrity, and service to our campus community. Lamine B. Secka, M.S.
