Statement:
The
primary mission of the University of Pittsburgh Police Department is for
the protection and welfare of all University students, staff, faculty,
visitors, and guests to the University as well as the safeguarding of
all property. In fulfilling this mission, our Department shall perform
the necessary law enforcement functions within our jurisdiction and assist
in a diverse range of services to the University community.
The values that guide the officer's working decisions are central to its
mission. These values include accountability, diversity, education and
training, problem-solving, compassion, cooperation, excellence, fairness,
integrity, human life, the laws and Constitution of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania and professionalism. When put into practice, these values
assist the officers' in providing the highest level of quality service.
The Department's values are characteristics of qualities of work. Although
the officers of the Department may need to balance these values from time
to time both an individual and collective basis, the Department will never
ignore these values for the sake of expediency or personal preference.
The Department holds these values constantly before it to teach and remind
the Department's members and the community which those members serve,
of the Department's ideals. These values are the cornerstones upon which
the Department is founded.
