Ebeid provides leadership, direction, and oversight for all campus safety

He is the University administration’s chief adviser on risk management issues and compliance with campus security regulations.

Ebeid and his department ensure the protection of all University personnel, buildings, equipment and information against criminal activity at all times, taking additional measures, when necessary, such as during major campus events and visits.
