NEW SINGLE COLLEGE SAFETY PHONE NUMBER:
954-201-HELP (4357)
The health, safety and welfare of our faculty, staff and students is of the utmost importance, and, as such, we are always seeking ways to improve our safety practices. In an effort to streamline the way the Broward College community contacts its Campus Safety Offices, we have developed and launched a single College Safety phone number - 954-201-HELP (4357).
Broward College has a clear policy on the use of drugs and alcohol on school property. These policies are in line with Federal, State, and local laws and are enforced as such. The unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensation, possession or use of drugs in or on college owned or controlled property is prohibited. No member of the college community is permitted to report to work or class while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. The college is committed to the enforcement of Federal, State and local alcohol laws. All reported violations of these policies are referred to the appropriate authority. Broward College has adopted a drug free workplace policy (6HX2-3.05) and a standard of conduct policy for students (6Hx2-5.06) that complies with Florida Statues and the State Board of Education Rules. Both policies are available upon request.
