The Kilgore College Police Department is a State-Certified police agency. We provide protection 24 hours-a-day, every day of the year. Our authority extends to the Kilgore College-Longview campus and any property owned or leased by Kilgore College. The officers are empowered to write citations, make arrests and investigate all criminal incidents on campus.
The major responsibility for the safety and well-being of students, faculty and staff members at Kilgore College rests with the Kilgore College Police Department. The department recognizes that it has a wider mission than other law enforcement agencies, adding significantly to its responsibilities. Department personnel are sensitive to the unique nature of the college community – a diverse group of students, faculty and staff. This calls for a safe and orderly environment so that all members of the community can fulfill their individual missions.
As a service to the students, staff and visitors, campus police will assist with minor vehicle problems such as jump starting low batteries and accidental lock-outs.
