When an Officer comes to work they
never know what the day will bring.
Working hard to keep the campus safe
is their main goal and makes the job
very rewarding. Our Officers have
seen lots of unusual things over the
years. Their experiences with
animals are often spent finding
homes for the many dogs and cats
that are found on campus along with
finding a safe place for the many
ducklings that are born near our
campus ponds. One thing they never
thought they would see was a horse
tied up to a light pole near
McElhinney.
A student couldn�t get his car
started this particular morning so
he decided to ride his horse to make
sure he got to class on time for his
test. Now that�s dedication.
The horse spent a few hours at the
Department of Public Safety awaiting
the return of its owner; the Police
Officers wanted to make sure the
horse was safe until the owner came
back to retrieve him. There is a
consensus that he preferred the lush
grass of the McElhinney lawn over
the sally port.
