Xavier Police agreements with Cincinnati and Norwood Police

Xavier Police, a state-certified police agency under Ohio Law, now has the authority to patrol off-campus streets where students frequently travel as a result of new concurrent jurisdiction agreements with Cincinnati and Norwood Police Departments. The agreements went into effect March 1.

A concurrent police jurisdiction is a written memorandum of understanding which provides Xavier Police with police powers and authority within the cities of Cincinnati and Norwood as defined under state laws and city ordinances.

The collaboration among the three departments will enhance safety both on and off campus.

Xavier Police completed a training and implementation program focused on the new policies of the agreements. The training also included supervisors from the Cincinnati and Norwood Police Departments.
