In an effort to maintain a safe and positive environment for students, employees and visitors, the NMJC Campus maintains in excess of 300 IP cameras throughout the campus. These cameras record activity and maintain the activity for approximately 90 days or indefinite if the recording is copied to a CD or flash drive.
The cameras can be viewed from different locations throughout the campus on televisions that are installed in Campus Safety Department offices. NMJC campus security cameras are also, able to closely monitor the parking lots and hallways of all campus housing.
New Mexico Junior College contracts with a company that monitors the weapon detection artificial intelligence contained in security cameras. The monitoring company sends alerts to the Campus Safety Team of confirmed weapons detections here on the campus.
Campus Safety Officers also have access to a hand-held radar for traffic enforcement on the campus. They also have the ability to issue citations to students, employees or visitors for violations of parking laws. Speed limit signs are posted throughout the campus in addition to a variety of speed bumps which are used to limit the speed of drivers. NMJC also has a variety or crosswalks on the campus for pedestrian use.
