Unbelievable sunset over the @lehighu Goodman Campus during halftime at the @LehighWSoccer home opener. Great energy in the stands and on the field. #GoLehigh

Louder for those in the back. “When communities have their needs met, communities are safer.”
A concluding message from @shanib44 : “Violence is a complex issue that requires thinking about comprehensive strategies toward healing and support.” But here’s one bottom line: “When communities have their needs met, communities are safer.” #StopTheViolence

If you're a Cop, and in relation to today's verdict your proposition to is to stop doing your job or encourage others to stop doing theirs, just quit. We don't need you.

Officer Lora Martin exemplifies what a police officer in America should be. Thoughtful. Caring. Giving. Open. Honest. Our community is better because of her.
Throughout her career as an LUPD officer, Lora Martin has remained an active member of the Lehigh community and received the John W. and Barbara R. Woltjen Award for her effort and dedication as an officer. bit.ly/2MfoibC

We need to reshape law enforcement into what our communities deserve and demand. The rise of warrior policing has eroded the last bit of trust our communities had in police. We need a guardian model of policing in America. We are not at war with our neighbors.

We need a guardian policing model, not the warrior policing model that has taken over. We are not at war with our neighbors and we need to stop acting like we are. We are losing the leaders we desperately need.

One big difference I’ve seen between municipal policing and college policing is the access to effective heath/mental health care on campus that others don’t have. If our society had true access to real mental health care...oh what a wonderful world it would be.
"CIT is a worthy program, but it cant take the place of... treatment. Its popularity shouldnt divert resources or attention from genuine mental-health-care reform. A truly humane and effective mental-health-care system would have no need for something like CIT in the first place"

We need more of Mister Rogers.

This is so important and needs to be said a thousand times per day.
Also I think we need to reimagine what it means to be police in America and what it means to call for the police in America. Cops must not see themselves as warriors for the simple fact that we must not be at war with our neighbors.
