Welcome from the Director
Canisius University Community,
It is a privilege to collaborate with our committed sworn officers and civilian staff in delivering professional police services to our students, faculty, staff, and visitors with integrity and care. Public Safety’s mission centers on building trust, ensuring fairness, and embodying the professionalism our campus community deserves.
Achieving this mission requires the active participation of our community. If you observe anything concerning, please report it to Public Safety. Whether you engage our officers or dispatchers in person via calls, emails, or anonymous tips, your input is invaluable in helping us serve you better.
We invite you to join us in fostering a strong partnership creating a safer and more welcoming environment for everyone at Canisius University. Together, we can share and learn from one another, strengthening the bonds within our community.
Your feedback is always welcome, and we encourage you to contact our office with any questions or suggestions.
Sincerely,
Chief Clayton Staton MCJ
