street that they appreciate the services we provide to them.

As you know we conduct numerous programs within the residence halls, classrooms and offices.
If staffing levels drop we will be forced to cut the amount of community policing that we do
throughout the year. What this means to recruitment and retention at the university is that the
students won’t be as connected to their police department as they are now. This has a large
impact on the perception of safety on campus. We feel that the high perception of safety on
campus and continued involvement with our community lends to successful recruitment and
retention. I thank you for your time in considering this funding request and should you have
questions please let me know.
Respectfully,
Jason Berthon-Koch
Chief of Police
