Student Spartan Patrol / Spartan Escort Service - An organization of uniformed student safety officers who perform as the police departments “eyes and ears.” They are in existence to enhance safety and security. The safety officers provide nighttime pedestrian escort services and are assigned to foot patrol details for faculty, staff and visitors. The students are equipped with their own radio frequency. The Spartan Patrol/Escorts also check the interior of buildings for safety mishaps. All building checks and escorts are transmitted to the student dispatcher and are recorded on a daily log sheet. The Spartan Patrol/Escorts are assigned to traffic and building details during athletic events and student activities. They are trained and supervised by the Norfolk State University Police Department. Fifteen Spartan Patrol/Escort students are hired each academic semester.


A Spartan Patrol/Escort must be 18 years of age, a full time student, and maintain a GPA of 2.0 or above. Fifty percent of the salary is automatically deposited into the students’ account for the payment of tuition and fees and the balance is their net-pay.


Students are encouraged to use the escort service. During the past year, over 200 calls were received for pedestrian escort. The services rendered by the students of the Spartan Patrol/Escort service has played an important part in increased visibility in buildings and on the grounds during the most demanding hours for services on the campus. Providing this vital service is a proactive measure of preventing crime against persons on the grounds and in our campus buildings.


This service operates Mondays through Thursdays - 5:30 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. The Spartan Patrol/Escort Service may be requested by calling 823-9492 or 823-8102.
