Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, the sheriff of any county, any part or all of which falls outside the limits of a city having a population of one million or more, may appoint as private college campus security officers security guards employed by an independent non-profit college upon the request of such independent non-profit college in accordance with the provisions of subdivision five of section sixty-four hundred fifty of the education law. The sheriff may appoint such campus security officers pursuant to this section only if more than fifty percent of the total acreage of real property owned by or under the control of such independent non-profit college is located within such sheriff's county of jurisdiction and outside the geographic boundaries of any city within such county and the county legislature or board of supervisors, pursuant to local law or resolution duly adopted, has authorized the sheriff to make such appointments. Any such security guards appointed as campus security officers shall be employees of the independent non-profit college requesting such appointment and shall not be officers, agents, servants or employees of the appointing sheriff or his county of jurisdiction nor be considered public officers, agents, servants or employees. Such campus security officers shall have only those powers set forth in subdivision five of section sixty-four hundred fifty of the education law.
