The department has set up an additional number to its dispatch center that contains 9-1-1. Now you can reach UAPD dispatch by calling 330-972-2911.

The department's other dispatch phone number remains active: 330-972-7123. But now you have another way to reach dispatch, and hopefully the new 972-2911 number will be easier to remember.

As a reminder: If you are on a cell phone, dialing 9-1-1 will send your call to the City of Akron police dispatch (city police will respond, or they will route your call to UAPD). If you are calling on a campus land line, the 9-1-1 call will go to UAPD dispatch.

The University's police department recommends that you program either one of the department's phone numbers as a speed dial into your cell phone. Doing so might well lead to a faster connection to UAPD dispatch if you are on campus with a cell phone and need the assistance of the University police. To the headlines.
