MassBay Community College is committed to ensuring a safe and secure educational community for students, faculty, staff, and visitors. Public Safety and MassBay Police maintain a secure environment for all, to foster and enhance the process of learning.
MassBay parking is free of charge for faculty, staff, and students. Please bring your MassBay I.D. to a Public Safety office to receive a sticker/card for your vehicle. These offices are located on the first floor, near the front entrance of the Framingham building, and at the end of the main hallway of the Wellesley Hills building.
There is separate parking for students and faculty/staff. There are also reserved parking spaces close to the buildings for visitors, disabled, medically-certified, and veteran/military to park. Charging stations by ChargePoint are available for EV/Hybrid plug in vehicles on the Framingham and Wellesley campuses for a small charge.
Parking rules will be enforced, with tickets issued that affect renewal of your vehicle registration if not paid. Everyone who parks on the MassBay Community College campus must have a parking sticker on their car.
If you are a MassBay student, faculty member, or staff member, the officers of the MassBay Department of Public Safety are happy to provide you with a walking safety escort to or from your vehicle.
You can request a safety escort during the day or evening hours.
Request a walking safety escort by calling 781-239-2699 or by visiting one of the Public Safety locations at Wellesley, Framingham, or Ashland.
The members of the MassBay Department of Public Safety extend their best wishes to the entire MassBay community for a successful and safe school year.
Presented here is the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act report, commonly known as the Clery Act, which is the landmark federal law (originally known as the Campus Security Act) that requires colleges and universities across the United States to disclose information about crime on and around their campuses for the previous three years.
MassBay complies with the Massachusetts “PROTECT Act,” G.L. c. 6, § 225(a) (2026), which authorizes the Governor of the Commonwealth to prohibit or limit civil immigration enforcement activities in the nonpublic areas of any state entity, including a state community college.
Based on the implementation guidelines issued by the Governor in response to the PROTECT Act, along with the Governor’s concomitant delegation of authority to the community colleges, MassBay has adopted the following nonpublic area designations for the College. These designations apply solely and distinctly in the context of the PROTECT Act and civil immigration enforcement, and should not be interpreted to apply in other circumstances, including those governed by separate College policies defining nonpublic areas.
In compliance with the federal Stop Campus Hazing Act, MassBay Community College publishes a Campus Hazing Transparency Report to inform the public about student organizations found responsible for hazing violations under College policy or state law.
The Stop Campus Hazing Act requires all higher education institutions receiving federal aid to publish this report at least twice each year. In accordance with the law, records in this report will be maintained for a minimum of five calendar years from the date of each update.
The law also requires that the College make available information about its hazing-related policies as well as applicable state and local laws.
