Snow College is a growing college with a population of over 6,000 students, faculty, and staff on both Ephraim and Richfield campuses. In addition, thousands of guests visit the campuses for a variety of special events and other activities. While the campuses are relatively safe, they are subject to some of the same problems experienced in other communities in central Utah.
Snow College campus police officers enjoy a special working relationship with Ephraim City Police Department and the Richfield City Police Department that enhances the level of law enforcement and safety on both campuses.
The mission of the Snow College Department of Public Safety is to provide and enhance a safe & secure educational environment for those that attend, work, or visit our campuses. Snow College Public Safety efforts are supportive and are consistent with the goals and ideals of Snow College and its community. Snow College Public Safety's primary purpose is to foster trust, reduce crime, help educate students in life skills and to enhance the quality of life for our students, faculty, staff, and visitors.
Campus Security and Fire Report can be found on the Snow College Public Safety web page at abu4.sanmingzhi.net/publicsafety/, and in Statistical Information on the U.S. Department of Education web page in compliance with the federal CLERY Act. A copy can be obtained at the Public Safety office in the Business Building, Ephraim Campus.
Snow College uses a surveillance camera system to document activities in public areas both inside and outside buildings. Do not assume additional safety based on observing a surveillance camera because such cameras are not generally monitored.
Snow College Campus Police have complete police authority to apprehend and arrest anyone involved in illegal acts on campus and areas immediately adjacent to the campuses. If minor offenses involving college policies and regulations are committed by college students, the Campus Police may also investigate and refer the individual to the Vice President for Student Success for disciplinary action.
College police officers are sworn Ephraim City officers. Thus, they are actively involved with police calls for service off campus. Ephraim City officers have full jurisdiction on campus property within Ephraim City. College officers have full law enforcement authority on the Richfield Campus and the Richfield officers have full jurisdiction on campus property within Richfield City.
Both campuses are part of a 911 emergency system. By mutual agreement with these agencies, Campus Police officers can access the National Crime Information Center database and the Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification (BCI).
There is typically a student Campus Security Agent on duty from 6:15 PM until 1:30 AM Monday through Sunday. Campus Security Agents assist with special social and sporting events and provide security checks of campus buildings and the library throughout the evening. They also can provide a safety escort for persons who are walking on or near campus after hours. CSAs are not peace officers and do not have police authority but can provide assistance and will summon proper authorities if necessary.
For Non-Law Enforcement Calls
Police/Fire Dispatch - In an Emergency
All non-emergency safety issues should be reported to the Director of Safety, at (435) 893-2235. All criminal activity and emergencies should be reported to Richfield City Police by calling (435) 896-6471 or 911.
Because off-campus housing facilities are not Snow College property, the Ephraim Police Department responds to all calls for service at these locations. Students involved in criminal behavior may be subject to disciplinary action based on that conduct being a violation of the Student Code of Conduct.
Emergency procedure reference guides are posted in classrooms, offices and common areas on both campuses. They provide general information for reporting and responding to crimes or emergency incidents.
When a fire alarm goes off in a building, individuals should evacuate the building to an open space away from and up wind from any possible fire and remain outside the building at a safe distance until the fire department or law enforcement has indicated the building is safe to re-enter.
All college-related accidents, injuries and incidents need to be reported to Risk Management. Report forms are available at abu4.sanmingzhi.net/studentlife/safety.html. Scroll down to and click on: ACCIDENT - INJURY - INCIDENT REPORT FORM.
Completed forms should be turned into the person who supervised the class, work, or activity. Incidents should be reported as soon as possible (within 24 hours or next business day) when they occur anywhere on campus or during any college sponsored activity away from Campus.
“If you see something, say something”. Any person who sees something odd or suspicious or, becomes aware of a potential threat of violence to self or others should report the threat to any of the following:
Please report concerns about lighting, pedestrian hazards, building safety and other types of safety concerns to the Maintenance Department at (435) 283-7220 on the Ephraim Campus and (435) 893-2235 on the Richfield Campus.
Under authority granted to Snow College by Utah State Code 53-B-103, 53-B-107, the Public Safety Department regulates parking on the campus and on public streets adjacent to the campus.
Parking of vehicles on the college campuses is on a first come, first served basis except where parking requires a parking permit or gate access. Each individual is not guaranteed a campus parking space and lack of space does not justify violation of college parking regulations.
Regulations are in force at the start of school, during test week, and when classes are not in session and throughout the year.
The following parking restrictions are enforced on campus:
Parking violation citations may be paid or contested by contacting:
Ephraim Campus
Ephraim City Justice Court

Not less than 5 days or more than 14 days from the citation date.
Richfield Campus
Sevier Justice Court
250 North Main Street, Suite 124
Richfield, UT 84701
(435) 893-0461
Not less than 5 days or more than 14 days from the citation date.
The following fines will be imposed for ticketed parking violations:
Snow College Vice President of Student Success may take administrative action on students that fail to settle any parking violation which may include but not be not limited to placing holds on transcripts or preventing registration for the next semester.
College safety personnel may place parking boots on illegally parked vehicles. The owner/driver will be required to pay a fee or receive a citation from a police officer to have the boot removed.
Vehicle(s) parked in violation of this policy are subject to impound at the owner's expense. Fees could exceed $350.00, not including tow charges and fines.
For Crime statistics relating to both Campuses, review the Campus Annual Security and Fire Report found on the Public Safety Web Page: http://abu4.sanmingzhi.net/offices/safety/index.html or contact Public Safety at 435-283-7170.

Snow College values fostering a safe campus community that promotes all individuals' well-being. Gender discrimination, sexual violence, and relationship violence counter our values institutionally.
The College has policies and processes available to all Badgers, guests, and visitors to ensure every person is provided support, information, and resources to address any misconduct, redress its effects, and prevent its recurrence.
Title IX is a federal law that protects all members of our campus community who experience sex discrimination, sexual harassment, sexual assault, interpersonal violence (including dating and domestic violence), stalking, or discrimination on the basis of sex, including pregnant and parenting students and employees. These protections apply to students, faculty, staff, contractors, applicants, and campus visitors. Title IX states, “No person in the United States shall on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving federal financial assistance.” Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972
Snow College, as well as the Title IX regulation, prohibits retaliation for any individual who reports possible discrimination, files a formal complaint, or participates in a discrimination grievance process.
Title IX prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex, including on the basis of pregnancy and parenting status. The college is required to provide reasonable accommodations due to pregnancy and parenting needs, including excused absences, changes in the work environment, or alternative participation options.
Choosing to make a report and deciding how to proceed after making the report can be a process that unfolds over time. Reporting can provide safety and support for individuals affected by Prohibited Conduct, provide the Complainant with resources and information about filing a formal complaint, and help create a safer campus community.
If you are ready to file a report, you can choose to report to any or all of the following:
Any person may submit a report regarding a possible Title IX Policy Prohibiting Discrimination violation. Filing a report is not the same as filing a Formal Complaint.
You can contact the Title IX Office via:
An individual, including a Complainant, may report allegations of Prohibited Conduct anonymously via any method listed above. While Snow College will work to respond to and remedy the allegations reported anonymously appropriately, please be advised that Snow College’s response may be limited. If a Complainant requests anonymity, the Title IX Coordinator will honor their request to the extent they can after assessing any health and safety issues impacting the campus community.
Upon receipt of information about Prohibited Conduct, the Title IX Office will make an initial assessment to determine if the alleged Prohibited Conduct falls under the Snow College Title IX Policy Prohibiting Discrimination and Sexual Harassment and respond to any immediate health or safety concerns raised by the information.
Snow College's process includes providing those impacted by Title IX and Sex/Gender-Based Misconduct with information and details on reporting options while providing confidential and non-confidential campus community resources and supportive offices, including academic, living, and employment adjustments, and mental health and medical care.
Supportive Measures are non-disciplinary and non-punitive individualized services offered as appropriate, as reasonably available without fee or charge, to the Complainant or the Respondent before or after filing a formal complaint or where no formal complaint has been filed. Such measures are designed to restore or preserve equal access to Snow College’s education programs or activities without unreasonably burdening either party, including measures designed to protect the safety of all parties or Snow College’s educational environment or deter sexual harassment. Supportive measures may be temporary or permanent.
Supportive measures may include but are not limited to counseling, modifications of work or class schedules, campus escort services, mutual no-contact orders between the parties, changes in work or housing locations, leaves of absence, tutors, working with professors to assist in course work, and other similar measures. Snow College will maintain as confidential any supportive measures provided to the Complainant or Respondent to the extent that maintaining such confidentiality would not impair the ability of the institution to provide supportive measures.
Snow College and the Title IX Office support an individual's right to choose whether to report. If you or someone you know needs information and help to facilitate the reporting process, we are here to help.
If you DO NOT want to report to the Title IX Office, you may want to discuss the incident in a confidential setting.
