Services Division
This division consists of Dispatching, Special events, Training and Crime prevention. Due to the retirement of Captain MacFarland, the responsibilities of the services division have been split between other members of the command staff.
Should you wish to contact us in regards to one of these topics, call 330.972.7123 and ask to be transfered to the appropriate supervisor.
Orientation/Crime Prevention Talks
Enrolled freshman are scheduled to attend orientation sessions where our segment presents crime prevention tips and techniques that are unique to the college experience. Methods of interacting with our department are also presented such as the Departmental Survey and the "Drop a Line on Crime" page where students can report a hazard or tip page.
Special Events Planning
With the recent success at the University of Akron in Football (MAC Champs 2005), Soccer (MAC Champs 2005), Basketball (NIT first round 2005), and with events like the King James Shooting Stars Classic AAU Tournament, The annual Alcoholics Anonymous Founders Day Celebration, The Akron Marathon, local area High School graduations, proms and after proms, weddings, concerts, student events, political and celebrity visitations, coordination of special events becomes a complex and mission critical task. Having the right numbers of officers in the right place to assure a smoothly operating event is our departments goal. To assure that our department has an adequate number of officers available, UAPD maintains arragements with the City of Akron Police Department, the Summit County Sheriffs Office, the Orville Police Department and the State Highway Patrol as well as all State Universities within the state of Ohio.
