The University of South Florida hosts hundreds of special events on campus every year including athletic events, dignitary visits, concerts, lectures and major public demonstrations that require traffic, security and crowd control. The USF Police Special Events Team evaluates all USF events for safety and security considerations and collaborates with the Sponsor, Facility Managers, Parking & Transportation Services, Facilities Management, and local, state and federal agencies to provide safety and security services.
