Message from the Chief

Welcome to the Santa Fe College Police Department

Thank you for visiting the Police Department section of the Santa Fe College website. Here, you’ll find important safety and security information, links to training and resources, our annual Clery crime report, and several ways to report concerns or contact us directly.

Santa Fe College is a premier institution, and the Santa Fe College Police Department is proud to have earned national recognition for excellence in community policing.

Our mission extends beyond enforcing state laws and college rules. Every member of the department is committed to working in partnership with the college community to achieve one shared goal: a Safe Santa Fe.

Our officers, dispatchers, supervisory staff, student work-study members, and volunteers all share a dedication to creating a secure and welcoming environment where students, faculty, staff, and visitors can succeed.

As your Chief of Police, I am honored and proud to serve this community. It is a privilege to lead such a dedicated team and to work alongside the entire Santa Fe College community to ensure safety and support educational success.

I look forward to meeting you on campus and working together to make Santa Fe not only safe, but also a place where everyone feels supported and valued.

Sincerely,
Ryan Woods
Chief of Police
Santa Fe College Police Department
