A
Welcome
everybody.
This
is
mayor,
steve
haggerty,
and
I
appreciate
you
joining
us
for
our
series
on
policing
here
in
evanston.
Today's
topic
is
collaboration
between
the
evanston
police
department
and
northwestern
university's
police
department,
as
well
as
the
use
of
police
and
resource
officers
in
our
schools,
both
district
65
and
evanston
township
high
school.
A
I'm
pleased
to
have
with
me
today,
art
sheets
at
the
evanston
police
department,
chief
cook,
deputy
chief
aretha
barnes,
deputy
chief,
newly
appointed
deputy
chief
melissa
secludi,
I'm
pleased
to
have
our
esteemed
principal
of
evanston
township
high
school,
marcus
campbell
with
us
today,
also
chief,
bruce
lewis,
who's,
the
vice
president
of
public
safety.
At
northwestern
university.
A
We
have
two
of
our
resource
officers
with
us
as
well.
We
have
mario
miller
he's
been
a
resource
officer
at
district
65,
welcome,
officer,
miller,
and
then
we
have
officer
royce
spells
with
us.
Who's
been
a
resource
officer
at
eths,
and
then
we
have
our
new
superintendent
of
district
65
who's
been
on
the
job
for
about.
I
don't
know,
is
it
18
days?
A
Was
it
july
1st,
or
just
before
that
about
about
a
month
and
he's
been
thrown
into
the
fire
here
in
evanston,
with
lots
of
important
decisions
that
that
they're
making
with
the
the
school
year
so
great
to
have
you,
dr
horton,
and,
as
always,
I
appreciate
patrick
degnan
and
anderson
castillo,
who
are
helping
us
behind
the
scenes
with
this.
So,
as
I
mentioned,
this
is
part
of
our
series
of
policies.
A
This
is
our
third.
This
is
our
third
one.
Next
monday
will
be
a
discussion
on
use
of
force
and
body
cameras,
which
is
another
topic
that
I
know
is
of
interest
to
everyone,
and
that
will
be
at
noon
next
monday
and
then
we're
going
to
have
additional
sessions
after
that,
then
I
will
that
I'll
report
out
there.
A
So
what
I'd
like
to
do
now
is
go
ahead
and
and
just
get
a
baseline
understanding,
and
that's
really
the
purpose
of
this
series
for
us
to
have
a
community
discussion
about
how
policing's
working
in
evanston
right
now,
and
I
think
that
foundation
is
necessary,
then
for
us
to
all
dig
deeper
into
whether
we
want
to
you
know,
make
changes
to
our
budget
with
evanston
police
department
and
decrease
it.
And
if
so,
in
what
ways
would
we
do
that?
If
we
want
to
change
our
procedures
on
use
of
force?
A
You
know
how
do
we
do
that?
It's
all
about
our
community
standards,
and
this
is
a
part
of
us
having
that
discussion
as
a
community.
So
what
I'd
like
to
do?
First,
though,
is
I'd
like
to
turn
it
over
to
our
principal
at
eths,
marcus
campbell,
to
start
us
off
with.
You
know
how
the
high
school
uses
resource
officers,
as
well
as
its
its
safety
and
security
office,
which
it
has
quite
a
large
office
there,
so
welcome
dr
campbell.
B
Well,
thank
you
mayor
hagerty.
I
appreciate
being
here
to
all
of
the
chiefs
officer,
spells
officer
miller
good,
to
see
your
face.
Dr
horton
same
I
appreciate
being
here,
I
appreciate
having
the
opportunity
to
talk
about
how
we
partner
with
epd
and
the
our
school
resource
officers,
to
provide
a
a
positive
school
culture
here
at
eths.
B
Just
a
couple
of
things
I
like
to
highlight
first
is
that
our
sros
have
been
partners.
We
consider
them,
like
our
staff
they're
here
every
day
they
interface
with
students,
the
interface
with
teachers
and
administrators,
adding
to
the
positive
school
culture
and
climate.
There
is
no,
how
should
we
say,
surveillance
or
policing?
That's
just
they're,
just
partners
with
us
in
helping
to
make
sure
that
each
hhs
is
safe.
B
Eths
does
not
use
sros
for
student
behavior
issues
that
is
a
function
of
our
dean
and
mayor
haggard.
As
you
mentioned,
our
student
management
personnel,
and
when
there
is
engagement
with
our
school
resource
officers,
it's
usually
around
preventions
and
interventions
that
we
have
in
place.
It's
not
a
punitive
system
but
more.
How
do
we
get
students
connected
to
the
resources
in
the
community?
How
do
we
get
them
connected
to
resources
here
at
eths?
How
do
we
get
them
connected
to
whatever
supports
that?
They
need
whether
they're
having
some
externalizing,
behaviors
or
internalizing
behaviors.
B
We
really
want
them
to
be
and
to
feel
supported.
They
don't
supervise
cafeterias
or
hallways.
That's
something
that
that
our
safety
management
personnel.
They
do
that
and
just
to
say,
we
also
engage
our
student
management
personnel
as
our
safety
officer,
also
as
a
means
of
building
positive
relationships
with
kids.
B
Our
safety-
I
don't
know
the
program
as
officers,
but
our
safety
management
staff
have
some
of
the
most
positive
relationships
with
our
students,
even
if
they're
doing
a
really
tough
job,
in
some
cases
providing
interventions
and
preventions
and
preventing
lots
of
student
conflict,
our
sros
are
trained
in
restorative
practices.
B
I
have
seen
officer
spells
and
officer
jenkins
engage
in
some
of
the
most
powerful
restorative
circles.
If
the
parties
are
are
willing,
participants
and
I've
seen
them
go
out
of
their
way
to
really
make
sure
that
those
relationships
are
maintained.
B
After
that,
these
incidents
have
occurred,
and
so
just
to
highlight
that
our
sros
are
pretty
great
and
always
have
been
great
at
building
positive
relationships
with
students
that
has
been
the
the
overall
partnership
that
we
have
had
with
epd
over
the
over
the
years.
B
They,
on
the
daily
basis,
you
can
see
officer
spells
teaching
our
co-teaching.
Our
public
safety
course,
which
I
think
is
a
very
powerful
model.
As
I
said,
we
don't
really
want
our
students
to
see
our
sros
as
as
punitive
and
as
agents
of
surveillance,
but
we
really
want
to
see
them
as
educators
and
they've
done.
That
they've
done
a
good
job
at
that
and
with
31
mental
health
professionals.
B
Here
at
eths,
we
know
that
there
are
some
things
that
are
still
police
matters
and
they
should
be
handled
by
those
who
are
trained
to
do
that.
So
we
have,
in
our
equity
journey
here
at
eths,
certainly
understand
the
conversation
about
policing
in
our
communities.
We
certainly
understand
the
disproportionate
number
of
black
and
brown
communities
that
are
impacted
by
policing
and
surveillance
and
of
the
school-to-prison
pipeline.
That
is
very
much
a
part
of
our
forefront
in
our
thinking,
which
is
why
we
engage
our
sros
in
a
different
way.
B
That
is,
that
is
a
very
intentional
and
a
strategic
purpose
for
how
we
partner
with
them,
because
we
have
concerns
about
how
policing
involves
many
communities
of
color.
You
know
both
you
know
locally
nationally.
There
there's
still
a
lot
of
trust
that
needs
to
be
built
with
communities
of
color
and
our
law
enforcement
communities,
and
we
think
that
this
is
one
of
the
best
models.
B
This
kind
of
positive
relationships
that
kids
can
build
with
with
officers
is,
has
we've
seen
it
work
for
work
for
good,
so
that's
just
an
overview
of
the
sro
conversation
here
at
eths
great.
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
dr.
A
Campbell,
do
you
know
how
long
sros,
the
police,
so
police
have
been
at
eths.
B
That's
a
great
question:
I
was
been
thinking
about
this,
so
the
sro
relationship
that
we
had
prior
to
the
loys
and
to
tonya,
and
so
so
many
others
was
officer
carl
fowler,
who
was
here
for
years
and
he
loved
his
relationship
with
eth,
just
so
much
that
when
he
retired
from
apd
he
came
to
work
for
us.
So
it's
gone
back
at
least
20
years
and
I've
been
here
for
20
years
and
officer.
Fowler
was
our
sro
at
that
time,
and
he
was
here
when
I
got
here.
A
That
was
a
question
that
sharon
had
she
just
put
online.
I
failed
to
mention
this
at
the
beginning.
We
are
live
on
on
facebook
right
now.
We're
also
recording
it,
and
this
will.
This
is
live
actually
on
channel
16,
and
then
we
will
run
this
episode
several
times
over
the
next
week.
A
cheap
cook,
yeah
yeah.
C
I
like
to
expound
on
that
a
little
bit
mayor.
You
know
when
chief
logan
was
the
chief
of
police
here
in
amnesty.
C
C
We
at
one
point
in
the
evanston
police
department
had
the
youth
outreach
workers
here
in
the
police
department
and
some
some
of
the
public
may
remember
mr
ron
strong.
We
did
restorative
justice
in
the
sense
that
it
is
now.
We
mitigated
a
lot
of
issues
through
peace
circles.
You
know
with
the
after,
after
school
fighting
and
so
forth,
we
would
get
the
peace
circles
going
here
and
try
to
resolve
issues
in
that
way.
So
at
least
goes
back
to
like
1983,
when
chief
logan
first
implemented.
C
A
Great
thank
you
and
officer
spells.
A
D
Fantastic,
I'm
not
sure
if
this
is
a
good
time
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
brief
history
of
sros
in
the
country,
but
in
1958
flint
michigan
was
the
first
police
department
to
institute
such
a
program
and
they
created
the
program
with
the
sole
purpose
of
improving
relationships
between
the
police
and
youth
relations.
D
Ten
years
after
that,
in
1968
is
when
evanston
police
department
created
their
first
sro
program,
formally,
being,
I
think,
about
the
fifth
or
sixth
agency
in
the
u.s
that
had
a
program
such
as
that
our
first
sro
was
officer
mcmillan
for
those
who
might
remember
office
mcmillan,
who
worked
with
fourth
and
eighth
fourth
to
eighth
graders.
D
A
Great
and
can
officer
spells,
could
could
you
you're
at
the
high
school
you're
one
of
the
two
officers,
the
sros
there?
So
can
you
talk
to
folks
about
what
a
typical
day
is
for
you?
We
heard
you
know
dr
campbell
just
talked
about
a
high
level
of
why
sros
are
there,
but
can
you
talk
with
the
audience
about
what
you
do
on
a
daily
basis.
D
Absolutely
oftentimes
our
day
begin
before
we
actually
leave
our
homes
because
we
are
in
constant
communications.
One
of
the
responsibilities
as
a
sro
is
to
make
yourself
available
to
staff
and
to
the
administration
of
the
high
school.
So
we
filled
phone
calls
and
emailed
text
messages
at
home
on
weekends
holidays
and
are
addressing
issues
before
we
even
arrive
at
the
school
because
believe
it
or
not,
things
happen
overnight
and
things
happen
on
the
way
to
school.
D
So
we
we
tried
to
respond
to
those
things
as
as
quickly
as
we
can,
but
on
a
an
average
day.
Our
day
begin
with,
you
know,
checking
reports
from
the
day
prior
and
seeing
if
there's
any
safety
concerns
that
we
should
make
the
the
high
school
staff
and
administration
aware
of
for
me
first
period
is
a
teaching
opportunity,
so
I'm
coming
into
school
and
greeting
staff
and
students
and
running
off
to
first
period
class
and
teaching
there
and
after
that,
I'm
we're
pretty
busy
with
meetings
throughout
the
day.
D
Some
of
those
who
are
set
meetings,
others
are
unplanned
and
informal
meetings
with
students.
I
like
to
share
all
often
that
I'm
meeting
with
students
about
things
that
are
not
police
related
whatsoever.
D
Some
people
know
that
we
actually
have
a
chess
board
and
a
checkerboard
in
our
office,
and
so
we
have
students
that
have
come
by
during
their
lunch
period
that
played
checker
or
test
with
us.
We
talked
about
prom
and
homecoming
and
a
number
of
other
things
we
are
just
like
the
title
state.
We
are
a
resource.
We
are
one
of
many
tools
on
the
educational
tool
belt
for
eths
no
different
than
northwestern
universities,
fair
or
you
or
the
street
outreach
team.
We
are
there
as
a
guest
in
that
environment.
A
So
we
we
had
a
question
from
both
christine
and
sharon,
and
I'm
going
to
ask
you,
dr
campbell,
if
you
want
to
take
this
and
the
question
is:
why
use
police
officers
instead
of
social
workers
to
connect
students
with
resources
and
for
those
that
are
just
joining?
You
did
mention
earlier,
because
it
it.
I
sort
of
took
note,
because
it
was
quite
a
large
number
said
that
we
have
31.
A
You
know
mental
health
providers
here
at
eths,
but
you
know
the
question
that
some
are
asking
is:
do
you
really
need
police
officers
to
to
do
what
they're
doing
as
opposed
to
another
type
of
profession,.
B
That's
a
great
question,
yes
and
I'll,
restate
that
we
have
31
mental
health
professionals
here
at
eths
and
every
single
day
and
they're
servicing
about
3,
800,
kids
and,
as
I
stated
earlier,
just
want
to
reiterate
that
there
are
some
things
that
are
simply
police
matters
that
I
would
not
want
to
expose
or
put
in
jeopardy
any
staff
member.
We
need
trained
professionals
who
know
how
to
deal
with
certain
types
of
ideations.
B
B
They're
attract
their
people
who
are
trained
to
to
handle
these
kinds
of
situations,
and
that's
what
we
really
rely
on
the
sros
for
and
it's
it's
for
and
for
for
us
it's
not
a
binary.
It's
not
an
either
or
it's
both
and
our
our
mental
health
professionals
work
very
closely
with
our
school
resource
officers.
B
Regarding
how
do
we
support
kids
if
they're,
maybe
harming
themselves
or
may
harm
others
or
whatever
the
case
may
be?
It's
it's
a
it's
an
all
hands
team
approach
in
keeping
the
4
500
people
in
this
building
safe.
Every
single
day,
there's.
A
4
500
people
in
the
building
and
how
many
students
these
days.
I
know
it's
been
going
up:
3,
800,
kids,
3,
800,
kids,
you
have
31
mental
health
professionals,
you
have
a
security
or
public
safety
team,
I'm
not
sure.
What's
the
name
of
the
the
the
team
that
you
call.
B
Well,
they're
referred
to
as
safety.
That's
our
nickname,
but
there's
student
management,
personnel,
okay,
and
how
large
is
that
group
that
crew
is
about
40,
plus
they're
engaged
in
a
lot
of
restorative
practice
as
well?
Cpr
training,
cpi
training,
a
lot
of
things
that
would
be
familiar
to
just
keeping
kids
safe.
A
Okay,
so
quite
quite
a
large
group
there
and
then
two
off
and
then
two
officers
and
how
and
in
terms
of
the
officers,
I'm
forgetting
right
now
does
eths
pay
half
and
the
city
pays
half
of
their
salary
or
is
it
the
city
that
pays
at
baldwin?
Do
you.
B
Know
the
city's
been
so
gracious
to
pay
to
pick
up
those
costs
for
us
so
that
we
can
maintain
our
mental
health,
a
robust
mental
health
staff.
Thank
you.
I.
A
Know
it's
always
a
conversation
that
that
that
we
are
having
in
the
city
just
because
of
our
budget
and
every
and
everything
else.
Well,
terrific,
and
then
I
had
one
other
question
that
just
came
in
who
patrols
the
parking
areas
at
eths.
B
Good
question
our
student
management
personnel
patrols
the
parking
lots
at
eths,
they
look
for,
they
really
weigh
tickets
all
day
and
just
to
make
sure
that
school
students
and
those
who
are
involved
in
school
should
be
here.
Those
that
are
not
should
not,
but
they
are
in
two
vehicles
throughout
the
day,
just
making
sure
that
the
exterior
perimeter
is
secure
and
is
safe.
A
Then
I
also
had
a
question
about
what
types
of
equipment
did
the
two
resource
officers
or
evanston
police
department
officers
carry
with
them
when
they're
at
the
high
school.
D
Sure
can
you.
D
You
mayor,
thank
you
again
for
that
question.
Much
of
what
you
see
now
is
is
what
you
will
see
in
the
school
setting.
We
are
in
standard,
blue,
uniform
and
our
duty
belt,
and
that's
about
it
other
than
perhaps
a
a
school
book
that
we're
we're
carrying
around.
That
is
about
it.
We
are
there
not
to
appear
to
be
to
police,
to
students,
and-
and
so
this
is
as
much
what
you
will
get.
A
I
know
that
the
police
are
always
sensitive
in
terms
of
putting
you
know
too
much
information
out
there
and
stuff,
but
you
know
are
there,
I
remember
my
dad
was
a
middle
school
principal
growing
up
and
everything,
and
I
remember
threats,
you
know
that
would
be
called
in
against
the
school,
and
I
presume
that
that
occurs
sadly,
but
I
presume
that
type
of
stuff
occurs
and
that's
you
know
a
type
of
incident
where
you
would
get
right
on
the
phone
you
have
the
resource
officers.
Is
that
correct.
B
Absolutely
there
are,
there
are
things
that
come
up
that
keep
doctor
with
a
spoon
and
I
up
at
night,
yes
and
the
more
I
am
able
to
rely
on
our
professionals
like
loyce
and
officer
jenkins.
In
those
times
it's
it's
very,
very
critical.
It
gives
me
confidence
to
know
that
that
our
students
and
staff
will
be
safe
because
they
have
the
training
and
they
know
the
procedures
on
the
pull
on
the
police
end
of
it,
and
but
there
are
situations
that
come
up
that
are
very,
very
scary.
A
Yeah.
Okay,
thank
thank
you.
I
think
what
I'm
going
to
do
now
is
I'm
going
to
turn
to
a
partner
of
the
cities
which
is
chief,
bruce
lewis,
who's,
the
vice
president
of
public
safety
at
northwestern
university
and
just
as
the
city
of
evanston
and
cities,
all
all
around
this
country
are
taking
a
moment
to
do
a
deep
dive
into
their
police
operations
into
their
police
budgets.
A
I
know
university
police
are
doing
the
same
and-
and
I
and
I
believe
you
guys
are
undertaking
a
review
and
all
of
that,
so
we
don't
know
where
this
will
all
lead,
but
I'd
certainly
like
our
viewers
to
understand
the
relationship
and
that
exists
between
nu,
pd
and
evanston
police
department.
I
think,
maybe
to
start
that
off
chief
just
be
a
good
understanding
for
people
to
understand
what
is
the
enu
police
department?
Is
it.
A
A
police
department:
do
they
all
carry
weapons?
Do
they
what's
the
patrol
area
that
they
have?
What
is
their
primary
purpose?
Welcome
to.
F
Thank
you
mayor,
and
likewise
thank
you
to
all
my
colleagues
evanston
police
department,
for
the
opportunity
today
to
engage
on
a
very
serious
matter
that
has
confronted
our
community
with
respect
to
how
we
police
our
communities.
F
As
you
said
there,
certainly,
we
have
enjoyed
a
healthy
relationship
with
evanston
police
department
over
the
years
under
a
memorandum
of
understanding
between
the
two
police
departments,
which
has
afforded
university
police
extended
jurisdiction
into
the
city,
to
police,
certain
jurisdiction,
geographical
boundaries
from
isabella
on
the
north
to
lake
street,
on
the
south
in
ashbury
or
green
bay,
road
to
the
west,
and
certainly
over
the
years.
This
relationship
has
has
benefited
both
communities
in
keeping
our
students
faculty
and
staff
safe,
as
well
as
our
community.
F
Our
police
officers
patrol
the
neighborhood
within
those
jurisdictional
boundaries
partnering
with
evanston
police
in
community
policing,
as
we
consider
where
we
are
today,
there's
certainly
opportunity,
as
you
alluded
to
to
re-examine
and
to
reimagine
policing
in
today's
age,
ways
that
we
certainly
can
better
inform
and
be
more
transparent
with
our
community,
and
I
know
one
example
of
that
is
our
body-worn
camera
program,
where
both
departments
engaged
in
a
federal,
supported,
grant
process
about
two
years
ago
that
benefited
both
departments
now
equipped
with
body-worn
cameras.
F
So
I
think
that's
an
example
of
the
opportunity
to
partner
and
to
present
to
both
communities,
transparency
through
the
body-worn
campaign
program.
Similarly,
in
terms
of
training,
there's
opportunity
to
partner
whether
it's
prices
and
prevention,
training,
de-escalation,
training
or
bias
free
policing
in
terms
of
rapid
deployment
training.
F
We
had
a
situation
about
a
year
ago
that
evolved
on
campus
threat
of
an
active
shooter
which
did
not
prove
to
be
bonafide,
but
nevertheless
the
response
and
the
partnership
certainly
supported
the
level
of
resources,
tactical
resources
that
was
needed
at
one
of
our
residence
halls.
Fortunately,
it
was
a
hoax,
but
nevertheless
it
reiterated
the
importance
of
joint
training
and
strong
communications.
F
F
I
we
do
a
partnership
in
the
neighborhood.
Northwestern
police
officers
are
fully
trained.
They
attend
the
police
academy.
They
are
equipped
to
handle
the
kind
of
threats
that
might
present
themselves
in
an
effort
to
keep
all
of
our
students
safe
in
the
in
the
neighborhood.
We
support.
Evanston
police
department
on
party
calls
disruptions
things
of
that
sort.
We
certainly
certainly
support
evanston
police
in
that
way.
F
Oftentimes
there's
an
opportunity
not
to
take
law
enforcement
actions
but
and
a
restorative
justice
perspective
to
make
a
referral
to
the
dean
of
students,
and
we
certainly
do
that.
We
partnered
with
evanston
police
in
terms
of
encouraging
our
students
to
assist
their
neighbors,
to
be
good
neighbors
in
the
incidence
of
loud
parties
having
already
exchanged
contact
information,
oftentimes
invert,
having
to
call
the
police
when
neighbors
can
simply
call
the
students
and
then
there's
an
understanding
that
maybe
the
party
was
a
little
too
loud.
So
then
they
lowered
the
music.
A
So,
chief
real
quick,
the
the
size
of
your
public
safety
group
there
and
then
can
you
give
us
just
a
general
sense
of
the
geographic
area,
then
that
they,
under
the
agreement
between
the
city
and
northwestern
that
they
have
some
authority
over.
F
A
Great
great
chief
cook:
do
you
think
if
northwestern
didn't
have
their
own
public
safety
department,
that
edmondson
police
department
would
have
to
have
additional
officers?
Well.
C
Most
definitely
northwestern
university,
I
want
to
say
the
professional
police
department
just
like
everton
is,
and
the
geographics
and
the
culture
of
the
university
setting
requires
special
skills
and
talents
that
I
notice
in
those
university
police
officers.
C
You
know
how
to
problem
solve
on
a
university
campus
without
making
an
arrest
of
a
student,
if
necessary,
doing
referrals
to
the
appropriate
deans
or
colleges
of
education
over
there
in
order
to
solve
problems,
and
the
elliston
police
department
certainly
does
that
with
the
other
school
districts,
district,
65
and
district
62
of
60
202,
I'm
sorry.
We
know
that
the
city
of
evanston
has
embarked
upon
alternatives
to
arrest.
C
So
even
when
we
have
a
situation
in
one
of
the
school
districts,
our
goal
is
just
to
solve
the
problem
and
provide
services,
whether
internal
services
or
external
within
the
city,
to
make
sure
that
the
student
gets
the
services
that
they
need.
Chief
lewis
spoke
about
communications.
C
I
want
to
say
that
the
university
was
very
proactive
in
providing
the
eviston
police
department,
with
approximately
twenty
thousand
dollars
worth
of
police
radios,
so
that
we
can
communicate
with
them
and
we're
going
to
reciprocate
that
with
the
purchase
of
our
new
radios,
a
new
starcom
radio
system
that
those
radios
are
also
extended
to
personnel
in
district
65
and
district
202.
C
We
provide
the
superintendent
and
the
deputy
superintendents
with
radios.
So
when
it's
a
situation
that
creates
a
hazard
or
a
possible
hazard
for
the
children,
we
can
directly
communicate
with
them
via
radio
and
provide
important
on-the-spot
information
that
will
assist
the
school
districts
and
how
they're
going
to
lock
down
the
school.
So
going
back
to
your
original
question,
we
would
definitely
need
more
police
officers
and
especially
trained.
I
consider
university
police
officers
to
be
specially
trained.
They
have
skill
sets
that
we
necessarily
don't
have
in
dealing
in
a
university
environment.
A
Great
thank
thank
you
chief,
and
I
can
tell
you
in
my
time
as
mayor
here
the
collaboration
that
I've
seen
between
northwestern
police
and
evanston
police
has
been
incredibly
strong
and
something
that
I
appreciate
deeply,
because
I
speak
to
all
the
incoming
freshmen
alone.
With
the
you
know,
the
president
shapiro,
and
they
invited
me.
A
Couple
words
to
all
the
freshmen
and
their
parents.
One
of
the
things
I
always
say
is
that
the
safety
of
your
child-
you
know,
while
they
are
living
here
in
evanston,
is
essential,
and
you
know
we
are
going
to
make
sure
that
we
keep.
You
know
everybody
in
this
community
safe,
including
including
your
child,
and
sadly
that
doesn't
always
happen
right.
A
Bad
things
can
happen
to
any
of
us
and
it
has
happened
there
as
well,
but
I
feel
those
calls
from
parents-
and
I
often
times
they
communicate
with
both
chiefs-
that
chief
lewis
and
she
cook
about
a
rising
crime
around
the
university
or
anything
like
that.
So
to
all
of
those
parents
who
are
sending
their
18
year
old
off
to
to
evanston
illinois.
They
want
to
know
that
their
child
is
safe,
so
the
the
collaboration
is
is
critical
and
I
appreciate
it
and
the
fact
that
we
have
bought
in
one
camera
videos.
A
Chief
lewis
mentioned
this.
There
was
a
pilot
program
and
northwestern
was
the
one
that
really
helped
lead
that
pilot
program,
if
I
recall
correctly,
even
pay
for
for
most
of
it,
and
yet
they
were
used
on
evanston
officers.
So
we
could
try
that,
and
now
we
use
those
on
all
of
our
officers,
which
I
think
everybody
appreciates
that
their
officers
and
our
residents
appreciate
appreciate
that
what
I'd
like
to
do
now
is
let's
say:
let's
turn
our
attention
over
to
district
65..
A
We
have
superintendent
devon
horton
with
us,
and
I
know
this
has
been
a
big
topic
of
conversation
really
before
you
arrived
here
for
the
last
two
years,
I've
talked
to
stephanie
cartha
about
it
and
and
others
and
there's
been
sort
of
a
rigorous
debate
and
you've
landed
in
a
different
spot
than
than
each
than
bths.
A
So
I
think
that
that's
good
for
this
conversation
to
understand.
What's
going
on
there
at
district,
65
and
and
I'm
excited
that
we
also
have
mario
miller,
who
has
been
a
resource
officer
there
and
can
talk
about
that
role
at
that
at
that
level.
So
welcome
dr
orton.
G
Thank
you
senator
haggerty.
As
you
spoke,
it
was
actions
and
work
that
was
started
at
least
two
years
ago
prior
to
me
arriving
and
where
the
district
has
landed
right
now.
Currently
we
use
our.
We
use
the
support
around
the
perimeters
of
our
school.
G
We
try
to
we
also
partner
with
them
for
emergency
planning,
our
sros
and
in
addition
to
that,
there's
a
law
that
was
just
pushed
and
put
in
place
by
illinois
in
which
we
have
to
we
work
with
our
sros
to
help
us
create
our
as
a
part
of
our
threat,
assessment
team,
or
you
know,
there's
been
attacks
in
schools
across
this
country
and
there's
no
better
organization
to
help
us
prepare
to.
G
You
know
to
best
combat
that
in
our
other
police
force
and
our
sros,
but
it
is
definitely
a
place
where
here
in
65,
where
we
have
used
other
strategies
to
work
with
our
students,
there's
some
healing
that
needs
to
take
place
in
in
all
communities,
especially
for
our
most
marginalized
students
and
our
board
and
our
in
our
school
district.
That
has
taken
a
firm
position
on
making
that
the
work
that
we
do
in
internally.
G
We've
pushed
a
lot
of
restorative
practices
into
our
schools.
It's
a
it's
a
it's
the
center
of
the
work
that
we're
doing
around
building
and
bonding
our
relationships.
We
have
a
very
heavy
support
for
our
from
our
social
workers
as
well,
and
we
are
we're
going
to
continue
to
work
in
that
way.
Again.
G
Definitely
we
have
partnerships
with
helping
other
things
that
happen
outside
of
our
schools,
that
are
that
the
police,
force
and
sro
office
is
really
helpful
with
with
protecting
us,
keeping
us
safe
and
then
they've
been
great
allies.
We're
planning
for
greatest
threat
assessments
and
emergency
planning
for
our
schools.
A
Great,
thank
you.
Dr
horton
officer
miller.
You've
obviously
been
there
in
as
an
sro
at
district
65
longer
than
dr
horton,
who
just
joined
us
has
been
so.
Can
you
give
our
viewers
a
sense
of
how
the
sros
have
been
used
in
the
past
at
district,
65
and
and
similar
to
officer
spells
sort
of
a
a
day
in
the
life
of
a
view
at
the
at
the
school
would
be
helpful.
E
So
I
guess
beginning
welcome
everybody
and
thank
you
guys
for
having
this
conversation,
because
it's
one
that's
needed,
and
it's
one,
that's
understanding
where
everybody
needs
to
know
where
we
are
at
this
point
in
dealing
with
policing
and
dealing
with
schools.
E
So
to
give
a
short
background
of
myself
and
my
partner
officer,
willie
hunt,
so
I'm
coming
into
this
into
this
position
as
looking
at
this
from
two
sides
of
a
coin
prior
to
me
becoming
a
police
officer,
I've
been
a
police
officer
for
19
years.
I
was
a
school
teacher
for
four
years
in
chicago
public
school
system
and
the
carbondale
community
high
school
system
prior
to
becoming
a
police
officer.
E
So
my
understanding
comes
from
being
on
the
educational
side
of
the
of
the
token,
and
also
on
the
law
enforcement
side
as
well.
I've
been
I've
been
a
school
resource
officer.
This
coming
school
year
will
be
four
years.
My
partner
officer
hunt
has
been
he'll,
be
going
to
year
seven,
so
we
have
different
skills,
different
trainings,
that
we
that
we've
uptaken
prior
to
going
into
the
position
as
being
certified
youth
officers
being
alice
certified,
as
dr
horton
mentioned.
E
We
also
are
trained
in
crisis
intervention
training
which,
which
feeds
us
to
be
able
to
understand
some
of
the
ideas
and
some
of
the
things
that
are
going
on
with
some
of
the
students
on
the
other
side
of
law
enforcement.
E
E
We
began
this
journey
as
of
checking
in
with
the
principals
checking
in
with
the
schools,
doing
setups
and
different
things
with
the
with
the
students,
so
that
we
could
try
to
get
some
type
of
relationship
some
bonding
to.
Let
them
know,
because
sometimes
you
might
have
a
kid.
You
might
have
a
family
that
might
have
all
negative
interactions
with
police,
no
matter
what
the
situation
may
be.
E
But
we've
gone
over
to
a
situation
where
this
year
we
decided
to
go
into
a
model
where
we've
tried
to
do
more
perimeters,
still
checking
in
with
the
with
the
principles
to
make
sure
that
everything
is
going
well
in
their
schools,
still
utilizing
alice
training
and
also
utilizing
their
tabletops,
which
we've
created
this
year,
just
to
make
the
schools
a
safer
environment
to
make
sure
that
to
make
sure
that
if
there
are
some
issues,
we
can
address
them.
And
you
know
everybody
can
be
safe
at
the
end
of
the
day.
A
Miller,
you've
been
involved
with
the
officer
and
gentlemen
academy
right:
yes,
yes
with
adam
howard
and
others.
So
how
many
those
you
know:
young
men
that
you
choose
or
teenagers
or
almost
preteen
and
then
early
teenagers
that
you
choose
about
a
dozen
or
so
each
year.
How
many
of
those
come
to
your
attention?
E
So
a
lot
of
them
so
for
the
for
the
office
of
the
gentleman
academy,
which
I'm
actually
vice
president
of
the
finances
and
operations,
so
a
lot
of
our
children,
we
get
them
from
either
parents
that
have
children
in
the
program
we
rely
on
our
principals.
We
rely
on
our
social
workers.
We
rely
on
our
teachers.
E
So,
right
now
we
have
actually
five
students
that
are
in
the
program
that
are
actually
at
eths
and
they've,
actually
come
back
to
the
program,
each
and
every
year
to
assist
with
some
of
the
younger
students
that
are
in
middle
school,
because
we
focus
on
sixth
to
eighth
grade
students.
From
we
had
last
year,
we
had
students
from
bessie
rhodes,
king
arts,
haven,
shoot
and
nickels
that
were
proud
of
the
program.
So
a
lot
of
them
have
gone
on
to
go
to
eths
and
continue
with
the
program,
but
you
know
they
have
their
positive
interactions.
E
They
have
their
different
things
with
us,
and
you
know
they
spread
the
word
to
their
friends
and
to
other
people.
You
know
we're
coming
to
a
program
just
as
an
assistant
once
again
as
we're
talking
about
it's.
It's
not
about
it's,
not
so
much
about
being
law
enforcement
officers
within
dealing
with
students
and
dealing
with
with
the
kids
is
more
about
being
an
extra
resource
extra
voice.
The
extra
situation
where
they
can
understand
they
can
relate
to
who
they're
talking
to
they
can
relate
to
somebody
that
might
have
had
experiences
similar
to
them.
A
I
suggest
googling
it
and-
and
they
could
always
use
support
from
folks
here
in
evanston
for
the
program,
but
it's
making
a
real
difference
in
the
lives
of
some
young
people
in
our
community
quick
question
and
then
we're
going
to
roll
through
some
questions
that
we've
gotten
from
the
audience
and
if
we
can
get
quick
responses
to
these,
I
want
to
make
sure
we
answer
everybody's
question:
how
much
do
resource
officers-
and
I
realize
there
may
be
a
range
because
maybe
based
on
longevity
and
how
long
they've
been
here
chief,
but
someone
wanted
to
know
how
much
they
get
paid.
A
C
So,
based
on
how
long
the
police
officer
has
been
here,
you
know
a
police
officer
can
make
up
to
a
hundred
thousand
for
a
little
bit
more
than
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
a
year.
But
what
we
extend
out
of
our
budget
each
year
for
school
officers
for
2020.
We
got
five
hundred
and
five
thousand
three
hundred
and
sixty
four
dollars
set
aside
for
school
resource
officers
in
the
school.
A
C
Office:
half
a
million
dollars
in
salary
and
benefits
car.
You
know
car
costs
and
things
of
that
nature.
That's
what
is
in
our
budget,
but
you
know
I
do
understand
the
nature
of
where
we
are
in
america
today
with
respect
to
police
officers
in
the
school
system,
and
we
worked
that
out
with
district
65..
C
A
lot
of
people
don't
know
that
the
unit,
the
united
states
district
court
for
the
northern
district
of
illinois,
which
is
the
seventh
circuit
federal
court
in
the
chicago
police
department,
consent
decree,
address
sros
between
the
city
of
chicago
and
and
chicago
police
department.
C
And
basically
the
judge
said
that
you
know
if
the
school
districts
are
going
to
have
a
relationship
with
the
police
departments
that
they
should
get
together.
Vet.
The
police
officers
that
are
in
the
school
system
provide
them
with
training
and
work
under
a
memorandum
of
understanding
with
respect
to
what
the
school
district
wants
in
the
school,
the
school
district
and
myself,
along
with
chief
bonds
and
mr
bobkowicz,
who
was
a
former
city
manager,
we
worked
out
a
draft
in
conjunction
with
district
65.
C
The
district
65
felt
was
the
way
that
they
want
to
go
and
that's
basically,
what
officer
miller
described
you
know
where
they
check
in
with
with
the
principals
we
cover
the
outside
perimeter,
and
then
we
provide
them
with
alice
training
and
mitigation
to
hazards.
C
That
may
happen
in
the
school,
but
one
thing
I
want
the
public
to
know
is
that
one
of
my
ultimate
responsibilities
as
a
police
chief
is
to
ensure
public
safety
for
our
students
for
our
university
community
and
work
with
them
in
whatever
way
they
feel
is
appropriate
for
them
to
achieve
their
goals,
and
I
think
we
we
are
doing
good
with
that.
That
document
is
still
in
the
process
of
ratification.
C
The
mou
is
with
the
legal
department
in
that
area
right
now,
so
I
think
you
know,
as
as
we
work
and
continue
to
work.
You
know
we
have
a
long
history
of
interaction
with
children.
C
I
got
six
high
school
students
working
in
the
police
department
now
that
want
to
be
police
officers
and
so
we're
trying
to
give
them
a
real
perspective
of
what
we
actually
do.
C
Chief
lewis,
I
want
to
thank
him
because
he
provided
me
with
two
phd
students
from
northwestern
university
out
of
the
sociology
department,
that
was
students
of
professor
pro
papa
christos,
and
he
was
on
last
week,
so
we
benefit
from
that
relationship
in
research.
We
benefit
from
the
school
districts
in
positive
communication
and
others.
My
goal
is
to
provide
the
school
districts
with
what
they
want,
not
to
be
a
hindrance
and
them
achieving
their
goals.
A
All
right
we're
gonna,
do
a
quick,
quick
round,
so
we
can
get
through
our
audience
questions.
I
think
this
one.
This
is
from
anita,
has
already
been
answered,
but
chime
in,
if
not
do
school
resource
officers
receive
special
training
officer
miller
talked
about
the
training
that
he
he
received
had
to
be
certified.
Youth
officer,
alice
training,
and
all
of
that
I
presume
that's
the
same
for
those
that
work
at
the
high
school
as
well
as
well.
She
did
ask
a
second
question,
which
I
think
is
a
really
important
question.
C
They
work
for
the
police
department,
but
when
they're
in
the
school
environment
I
like
for
them
to
adhere
to
what
the
superintendent
of
each
institution,
whether
it's
northwestern
with
chief
lewis
or
whether
it
is
district,
65
or
district
202,
is
to
provide
the
service
that
is
appropriate
in
the
eyes
of
the
the
people
at
these
institutions
that
are
running.
So,
if
I
got
two
officers
in
district
65
officers
in
district
202,
I
expect
them
to
participate
positively.
C
I
expect
for
them
to
go
by
what
the
superintendent
of
schools
expects
and
and
build
a
relationship
on
that
level.
So
it's.
F
C
A
Got
it
keisha
keisha
asks
how
many
arrests
have
been
made
on
school
grounds.
I
don't
know
if
this
is
something
that
you
track,
maybe
at
the
at
the
high
school
or
at
district
65
on
an
annual
basis.
C
If
I
remember
correctly,
I
don't
have
that
information
in
front
of
me,
but
at
district
202.
I
think
that
was
a
four
year
for
that
data
and
I
believe
it
was
16.
now,
some
of
those
do
you
have
any
information
on
that
lloyd.
C
Now
the
level
of
enforcement
or
intervention
that
those
incidents
took
place
that
I
don't
I
don't
have
that
information.
D
Yes,
we
don't
have
the
the
hard
numbers
in
front
of
us,
but
we
can
proudly
say
that
those
numbers
have
been
decreasing.
You
know
significantly
in
the
last
three
to
four
years,
which
is
great.
We
have
to
understand
what
is
those?
What
do
those
numbers
look
like
for
an
arrest?
D
An
arrest
can
consist
simply
of
a
student
being
brought
to
the
station
and
their
parents
meeting
us
there
to
discuss
the
issue,
and
then
they
go
home
with
the
parent,
never
never
handcuffed,
not
jailed
in
any
capacity,
but
because
soda
arrest
me
and
they
were
not
free
to
leave
and
they
had
to
address
the
issue
that
that
was
at
hand.
A
Yeah
dr
campbell
or
officer
spells
how
important
is
his
time
is
how
how
much
is
time
of
the
essence
in
responding
to
some
of
these
situations,
meaning
that
if,
if
the
the
high
school
decided,
the
school
board
decided
that
we
no
longer
want
to
have
resource
officers
which
are
there
are
two
at
the
high
school,
and
so
you
know
you're
still
having
some
police
department
officers,
chief
cook
or
barnes,
or
whoever
they've
assigned
you
to
some
some
other
station
and
duty.
What
does
the
high
school
lose
in
terms
of
you
know,
timing?
B
Timing
is
very
important,
and
what
comes
up
for
me
is
that
you
know
I
have
a
little
note
to
myself
written
and
dr
horton.
You
know
sort
of
got
me
thinking
along
these
lines.
It's
we
live
in
a
terrible
situation.
We
know
we're
in
a
terrible
situation
when
schools
are
required
by
law
to
have
a
threat
assessment
team
right
and
our
sros
are
part
of
that
threat.
Assessment
team
and
I
believe
that
this
law
was
put
in
place
after
sandy
hook.
D
If,
if
I
can
add
to
that,
something
that
was
mentioned
by
dr
campbell
and
dr
witherspoon
last
week,
is
that
you
have
the
benefit
of
the
sros,
knowing
the
student
body
as
well
and
knowing
the
school
and
so
every
officer
of
the
150
plus
and
the
police
department,
don't
know
the
areas
and
the
intricacies
of
the
school
itself.
B
Thank
you
and
then
not
certainly,
and
does
it
say
I
never
certainly
don't
want
to
rush
the
conversation
with
our
community
or
with
our
board,
but
it's
it's
definitely
and
it's
an
important
conversation
to
have.
A
And
and
dr
campbell,
you,
where
the
high
school
stands
right
now
is
you've
started
that
conversation.
It's
still,
you
know,
following
the
past
practice
of
having
resource
officers
there
and
everything
but
you're
having
that
conversation
as
my
understanding
as
a
board.
B
A
So
they're
being
very
deliberate
in
their
in
their
thinking
and
everything
else,
and
I
would
say
that's
the
position
that
I'm
taking
in
the
city
is
take
everything's
on
the
table,
but
we're
going
to
be
thoughtful
and
deliberate
doctor,
dr
horton,
the
decision
that
was
made
last
week
by
the
district
65
school
board.
How
does
that
change
the
use
of
resource
officers
there
meaning?
Does
it
eliminate?
A
You
know
the
two
resource
officers
entirely
or
are
they
still
doing
the
kind
of
work
they
were
doing
last
year,
which
had
changed
from
the
years
before,
where
they
were
inside
the
school
and
more
outside
the
school?
Now.
G
It
would
for
now
it
will
continue.
You
know
the
decision
that
we
that
was
made
last
year
for
now
that's
the
direction,
we're
still
heading.
A
Great
all
right,
I
think
people
appreciate
knowing
that
okay
keisha
also
has
what
percentage
of
the
epd
budget
is
related
to
policing
in
schools.
Chief
cook
mentioned
early
about
half
a
million
dollars
in
salary
costs
or
associated
with
the
police
officers
that
are
sros
all
together.
We've
got
about
20
million,
if
I
remember
from
last
week's
session
in
personnel
cost,
so
that
would
be
about.
2.5
percent
is
affiliated
with
resource
officers
and
correct
me
chief.
If
I
got
those
numbers
wrong.
C
Overall,
if
you
look
at
our
budget
as
what
is
outlined
in
the
in
the
city
budget
book.
A
Okay,
got
it
so
1.23
general
question:
does
epd
respond
to
incidents
on
northwestern's
campus
and
does
nupd
respond
to
incidents
off
campus?
So
why
don't
I
ask
chief
lewis
if
you'll
take
this
one.
F
Northwestern
police
response
off
campus.
If
it's
within
the
established
mou
jurisdiction,
we
certainly
respond
anything
beyond
that.
It
would
come
at
the
request
of
the
chief
of
police
or
the
deputy
chief
of
police.
For
us
to
assist
the
city
police
in
managing
a
situation
could
be
a
critical
incident
could
be
a
hazardous
incident.
F
A
And
let's
just
let's
just
take
a
worst-case
scenario:
chief:
that
there
is
a
a
shooting
or
a
suspected
shooting
on
campus.
Who
is
it?
Epd
is
gonna,
get
a
call
to
911
okay
and
they
have
full
right
to
respond.
Correct.
F
Yes,
absolutely
it's
an
emergency
situation,
it's
absolutely
imperative
that
law
enforcement
entity
that's
contacted
respond
to
that
situation.
Northwestern
police
department
also
has
a
911
center
that
backs
up
the
city's
9-1-1
center.
So
we
would
automatically
hear
when
those
car
cars
are
dispatched
to
the
campus,
and
we
too
respond
to
that
call
that
critical
incident.
A
Great
and
that's
great
for
people
to
know
northwestern
also
has
an
emergency
operations
center
and
given
that
we're
in
the
midst
of
an
emergency
right
now
with
the
pandemic,
this
is
there's
also
a
random
of
understanding,
an
agreement
between
northwestern
and
the
city
to
use
that
that
resource
and
right
after
this
pandemic
we
did
and
then
we
needed
more
space
because
of
social,
distancing
and
moved
out
and
that's
been
that's
been
a
great
resource
to
the
city.
To
chief,
it's
just
another
example.
A
I
think
of
the
good
collaboration
that's
gone
on,
someone
asked:
can
nupd
stop
and
arrest
non-students
off
of
campus,
so
let's
say
I
live
near
or
you
know
near
orrington,
I'm
driving
down,
and
I
didn't
notice,
but
I
was
speeding.
I
never
did,
but
I
was
speeding.
Could
your
officers
pull
me
over
and
cite
me.
F
Yes,
we
do
have
statutory
authority
to
enforce,
enforce
all
traffic
laws,
including
dui,
speeding,
disregard
for
red
lights,
any
traffic
violation.
Our
officers
do
have
the
statutory
authority
to
take
law
enforcement
action.
A
We
have
a
question
from
david:
does
nu
receive
funding
from
the
city
council,
meaning
northwestern
police
department?
They
do
not
here's
the
thing.
Generally.
We,
the
city
of
evanston,
is
not
paying
for
the
northwestern
university
police
department.
That
said,
we
do
have
agreements
like
I
mentioned,
with
the
emergency
operations
center,
when
we
did
the
the
body
worn
camera
videos
where
there
may
be
money,
that's
transferred
from
the
city
there
as
part
of
the
joint
project
that
we're
doing
together.
A
F
No
mayor,
I
think
you,
you
said
it
correctly-
we're
not
funded
by
the
city
of
evanston,
sorry
on
any
operational
or
programmatic
undertaking.
A
Great
and
I
will
add
for
northwest
sporting
in
northwestern
sporting
events
when
you
see
nor
when
you
see
evanston
police
department.
At
those
events,
we
do
have
an
agreement
where
this
city
is
reimbursed.
The
university
is
reimbursing
the
city
for
those
expenses.
Okay,.
C
That's
correct:
the
university
has
been
great
with
the
reimbursement
practices
last
year
in
2019,
the
city
was
reimbursed,
444
thousand
dollars
from
northwestern
for
services
at
sporting
events.
A
A
Thank
you,
chief
paige
asks:
does
the
city
support
defunding
northwestern
university
police
department?
Why
are
we
not
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
take
that
question
page?
As
I
mentioned
at
the
at
the
start,
I
think
it
is
appropriate
for
everybody
to
be
examining
reimagining
their
their
police
departments
and
doing
their
review
of
the
operation
and
the
budget.
The
city
of
evanston,
honestly,
you
know,
relies
on
northwestern
university
public
safety
to
help
keep
the
university
campus
safe
and,
by
extension,
our
our
city
safe.
I
trust
their
good
judgment.
A
I
know
they're
going
to
do
a
thorough
review
as
well
and
are
going
to
be
deliberate
in
in
their
approach
again.
If
there
is,
you
know
unnecessary
money
that
we
are
spending
in
policing
and
that
we're
going
to
take
a
look
at
and
say
how
better
can
we
invest
this
month
and
I
think
all
institutions
are
taking
a
look
at
that
right
now,
all
right.
A
I
think
that
wraps
up
the
the
questions
that
we
had,
I
think
I
may
have
had
one
other
one
that
came
in
this
is
from
okay.
We
got
a
couple
that
came
in
to
what
extent
this
is
from
rabbi
klein,
who
works
with
our
police
department.
A
C
All
the
instances
I
know
of
of
us
going
on
campus
to
a
fraternity
house
would
be
if
we
are
requested
to
go
there
for,
for
some
reason,
a
loud
party
or
something
like
that.
Northwestern
will
ask
us
for
assistance,
but
northwestern
is
a
very
competent
police
department.
It
is
not
some
security
guard
issue
over
there.
C
It's
a
real
professional
organization
and
they
know
how
to
mitigate
just
about
any
situation
just
as
well
as
we
do,
but
we
do
work
in
collaboration
with
each
other.
We
do
team
up
to
solve
problems
and
things
of
that
nature.
Okay,.
A
C
Yes,
since
covid
came
into
existence,
our
resource
officers
have
been
have
been
reassigned
to
patrol
operations.
C
That
means
they
get
in
a
square
car
and
do
patrolling,
but
it's
we're
unsure
on
how
the
school
district
districts
are
gonna
respond
with
opening
up
for
the
fall,
but
we
still
have
these
officers
available
to
go
back
to
their
duties
as
school
resource
officers.
If
that's
what
the
district
wants?
Okay.
A
All
right
and
then
we'll
wrap
up
with
a
question
from
vina,
which
is:
why
is
9-1-1
not
sufficient
for
reporting
an
emergency
at
a
school
versus
needing
to
have
the
officers
on
site?
I'm
going
to
turn
to
you,
dr
campbell,
for
that
one.
Since
again,
the
officers
are
in
that
building
in
a
large
building
at
eths
during
the
day.
That's
not
the
case.
It
takes
district
65
because
there's
18
or
more
different
disabilities
and
they
can
they
move
around.
A
B
And
I
guess
I'll
respond
to
that.
It's
never
either
or
but
both
and
having
someone
in
the
building,
who
knows
the
kids
may
be
familiar
with
the
situation
is
much
better
equipped
initially
to
handle
that
scenario
and
if
officer
spells,
needs
some
support.
He
has
direct
line
of
his
colleagues
to
be
able
to
get
the
support
that
he
needs,
but
I'd
much
rather
have
someone
who's
in
the
school
knows.
The
kids
knows
the
situation,
maybe
even
avoid
calling
9-1-1,
because
we
wouldn't
have
to
do
that
if
he
weren't
here.
B
I'd
have
to
do
that.
It
might
be
more
frequently.
You
know,
eths
is
a
safe
place,
but
you
just
never
know
given
what's
what's
happening,
you
want
to
have
a
rapid
response
with
someone
who
was
familiar
with
the
students
and
might
be
familiar
with
the
situation.
Great.
A
D
You
very
much
and
reno.
Thank
you
for
that
question
is
a
great
question,
certainly
if
we
were
there
only
in
a
law
enforcement
capacity.
That
would
be
a
issue,
but
we
are
also
serving
in
a
informal
counselor
capacity
as
well
as
an
educator,
so
we're
serving
multiple
roles
and
not
slowly
responding
to
emergencies.
A
Great,
thank
you.
Thank
you
officer
spells
thank
you
officer,
miller,
dr
campbell,
dr
horton,
chief
louis,
all,
our
chiefs
at
the
evanston
police
department
and
patrick
and
anderson
work
behind
the
scenes
to
put
this
on.
Our
next
series
in
on
policing
is
gonna,
be
use
of
force
and
body
cameras
that
will
be
next
monday
at
noon.
A
I
really
value
and
appreciate
the
conversations
that
we're
having
here
in
the
community
both
the
conversations
that
the
activists
are
engaging
our
residents
in
the
conversations
that
we're
having
the
city
council
is
going
to
be
talking
about
policing
in
evanston
on
next
monday
night.
We
don't
have
city
council
tonight,
but
next
month,
next
monday
night.
I
think
the
timing
couldn't
be
better.
I
think
that
everyone
is
being
open-minded
to
these
conversations.
I
know
that
I
am.
I
know
people
have
said.
Oh
well,
you
don't
support
defunding
the
police.
A
Let
me
be
clear.
I
do
support
a
fellow
examination
of
our
budget
of
our
operations
and
honestly,
this
is
the
first
time
since
I've
been
mayor
where
we
have.
We
have
done
that
we
haven't.
Had
many
people
come
to
us
in
the
past
and
say
hey,
we
need
to
take
a
look
at
it
and-
and
I
think
it's
appropriate,
and
so
I
appreciate
everybody
today
joining
us
to
talk
about
the
collaboration,
coordination
and
rationale
for
resource
officers
and
new
safety
department.
