The safety of our students is our priority.
Officers
MBU has an officer on campus 24 hours a day 7 days a week. The officers of the department are licensed and have arrest authority through the St. Louis County Police. Each officer is trained and certified at the St. Louis County Police Academy
Emergency Call Buttons
Each and every classroom and common area are equipped with emergency call buttons that are directly connected to public safety. Public safety has the responsibility of responding to and summoning the necessary resources to mitigate, investigate, and document any situation that may cause a significant emergency or dangerous situation.
Text Services
Text Messaging is an opt-in notification system where a text message can be received on your mobile phone. MBU does not charge for this service; however, your carrier may have standard text messaging charges.

Blue Light Phones
Emergency Blue Light Phones have been strategically placed throughout Missouri Baptist University’s 65-acre campus in an effort to further provide assistance, and protective and safety services to the MBU campus community. The phones, which are attached to elevated and highly visible poles, are equipped with speakerphones and strobe lights. Phones are to be used by students experiencing car problems, want to report a suspicious incident or a medical emergency, or for any other kind of assistance or information.
These units compliment the courtesy phones provided at the entrances of each MBU campus facility. When used, the telephones are immediately connected directly to the Department of Public Safety.
How to use a Blue Light Phone:
- Push button for help
- When call is received
- Push and hold to talk
- Release to listen
