Talk-A-Phone presented Victor Clime, Chief of Public Safety for Hillsborough Community College, with emergency phone towers that incorporated emergency communication, mass notification, camera surveillance, and access control capabilities.
In recent years, colleges across the country have upgraded and improved the way they monitor, assess, and respond to security incidents on campus. Unfortunately for many departments around the country, the recent economic downturn has led to slashing of budgets and personnel. This has posed a serious challenge to college police and security departments. As a result, campuses now have to rely on improved infrastructure and tools in order to police their respective populations more efficiently.
Hillsborough Community College, located in Hillsborough County, Florida, has been at the forefront of adapting their security infrastructure and police force to unfortunate budgetary cuts and personnel limitations. In order to overcome these constraints and properly police their 48,000-student enrolment, Hillsborough turned to Talk-A-Phone Company.
