Policy Advisory Workgroup
The UOPD is the only campus police department in the country that includes our students in reviewing department policy and helping to create new policy.
The role of the Policy Advisory Workgroup is to provide informed recommendations on police policies and practices. The police chief relies on this multi-disciplinary approach to ensure all department policy meets local, state, and federal law, while remaining consistent with the needs of the community.
UOPD Complaint Process
University of Oregon faculty, staff, and students play a key role in reviewing complaints against UOPD as members of the community Complaint Resolution Committee.
