Campus Security and Public Safety (CSPS) jurisdiction.
Primary jurisdiction over enforcement of federal immigration laws rest with the federal government and not with Campus Security and Public Safety (CSPS) or any state or local enforcement agency. CSPS is committed to providing service that strives to ensure a safe and secure environment in which members of Gonzaga’s diverse community can fully embrace the University’s mission. Community trust and cooperation are essential for CSPS to effectively and positively contribute to our community. The limited resources of CSPS should not be diverted from this mission.
Undocumented Community Support Coalition is available to help Gonzaga Students during the Holidays. If you arrive at Spokane Greyhound station, and are unable to get a ride back to campus during the Holidays, GU students can utilize the University Safe Ride program by calling 509-313-2222. While Campus Security (CSPS) officers cannot act on behalf of students, or interfere with ICE officers, they can be available for emergency transportation. Students do not need to share any information, they simply need to say, it is an emergency and they need assistance getting back to campus. Students will need to provide their name to CSPS in order to confirm they are a student prior to dispatching a Safe Ride (which is an Uber ride paid for by the University).
There will be very limited office hours covered during the Holidays as campus is closed Dec 21st – Dec 25th, and then Dec 28th – Jan 1st . In an emergency situation, please call the following numbers:
Washington Immigrant Solidarity Network (WAISN):1-844-724-3737
Kenji Linane-Booey, Admission Counselor, and Undocumented Student Support Coalition Chair: 509.313.6285
Raymond Reyes Ph.D., Associate Provost, and Chief Diversity Officer; Office of the Provost & Senior Vice President: 509.313.6550
