The Indiana University Police Department has formed a strategic faculty partnership agreement with Natalie Hipple, professor and chair of the Department of Criminology and Criminal Justice in the College of Arts and Sciences at IU Bloomington, to strengthen its service to the IU community.
Maintaining a formal partnership with a dedicated faculty member supports the IUPD’s goals to institutionalize evidence-based practices, improve transparency, and foster a collaborative environment between the university and the police department.
“The IUPD is committed to data-driven policies and practices, transparency, and continuous improvement in the quality of our service to the university’s students, faculty and staff,” said Benjamin Hunter, IU associate vice president and superintendent for public safety. “The IUPD has benefited from professor Natalie Hipple’s expertise for many years, and we’re thrilled to formalize our partnership and continue collaborating with a shared vision of evidence-based campus policing.”
