California State University San Marcos Police Department California State University San Marcos PD Policy FOREWORD A well written, proactive and professional policy manual is essential to meet the expectations of a police department in an increasingly complex, ever-changing society. These policies, coupled with professional training and a dedication to duty, will provide you with the tools to meet the needs of our campus community. This manual contains the most current and best practices, and is also designed to incorporate and be compatible with CSU policies and protocols, as well as San Diego County law enforcement protocols. The nature of police work is such that no policy manual can address every situation that our department may encounter. When faced with these situations, members of our department are expected to use good faith and good judgment in their decision making. All members of this department are held to the highest standards of conduct, personal integrity, and service to our campus community.
