Vance-Granville Community College Police Department

Jurisdiction and responsibilities

Vance-Granville Community College operates sworn campus police within its Office of Public Safety. Official campus contacts cover Main, Franklin, South and Warren campuses, with local-agency contacts for Vance, Franklin, Granville and Warren counties. This is a single institutional agency, not four independent college departments.

How the agency is organized

The college states that sworn officers exercise authority under N.C. General Statute 115D-21.1. The Chief of Police/Director of Public Safety establishes general orders under college leadership. The same public-safety organization includes non-sworn security staff, whose responsibilities and authority are separately described. Police and security are not interchangeable titles.

Agency history and local context

The official department history reviewed did not establish a founding date. The current policy and campus-service structure are used to describe the organization without inventing a timeline.

Official records and officer resources

Official resources include daily incident information, emergency procedures, parking rules, Clery statistics, crime-prevention materials and violence-against-women information. The college provides campus-specific security contacts and explains reporting options. Annual security data uses campus-specific definitions and should not be equated with total crime across the four counties.

FBI data · 2025

No unambiguous match for this agency was made in the FBI 2025 agency tables used for this directory. This does not mean the agency had no crime, no officers or no reporting obligation.

Blank or unavailable values remain “Not published.” Participating agencies and reporting scope vary. Campus figures concern the reporting institution; a city name does not expand them to all local residents. Read the data definitions and limitations.

NC SBI data · 2024

The NC SBI record is published under Vance-Granville Community College. Its 2024 reporting-status table lists: Does Not Participate. These earlier figures are presented separately from the FBI’s 2025 tables.
