Special Operations

 The Special Operations Unit at the University of South Alabama is a highly versatile unit that provides a wide range of services throughout the university. Among its many services, the Special Operations Unit is able to provide security services, crowd control, event entrance checks, and event traffic flow and control. The unit is primarily composed of USAPD officers and Police Auxiliary Employees. However, the Special Operations Unit also collaborates with other agencies in Mobile County in order to provide personnel for large events.


The Special Operations Unit renders its services at various events such as USA football, basketball, and baseball games, 5k races, graduations, approved on-campus parties, on-campus weddings, and special events hosted by the Mitchell Center.
