Students are encouraged to attend Coffee with a Cop hosted by KeanSAFE on Wednesday, Dec. 6 from 3:15 to 4:15 p.m. Students will have the opportunity to meet the campus police over coffee and doughnuts in the Hutchinson Commuters Lounge.
The campus police span across both the Main Campus and the East Campus, ensuring the safety of every student, faculty and staff member. Yet individuals often simply pass by them on their way to class or the parking lot. Coffee with a Cop provides an opportunity to meet these wonderful men and women who strive to keep Kean University safe and secure.
Justina Vicioso, president of KeanSAFE, is proud of this event and wants students to be a part of it. "The purpose for Coffee with a Cop is to give students a chance to meet our officers on campus," she mentioned. "It’s a great way to improve community and police relations within Kean University. "
This event seeks to serve as a benefit for students all over campus. "We want our students to know we are safe, and if they have any questions they have an opportunity to enjoy coffee and doughnuts with the officers," Vicioso mentioned. "The students benefit by socializing with officers and get any campus safety or concerns answered. It also allows students to be comfortable around campus police."
KeanSAFE is composed of students who promote the core ideals of the Department of Public Safety in hopes of creating a safe community. This event aligns with the purpose of KeanSAFE and Justina Vicioso's mission.
"As president of KeanSAFE, my mission is to improve campus safety and hear the voice of our students."
Once again, students are highly encouraged to join the cops for a cup of coffee and doughnuts. It will be a great event that will help students familiarize themselves with the campus police and ask questions about criminal justice. Students will have the opportunity to indulge in the campus police's knowledge about the criminal justice field. If any students want to voice their concerns, there will be a suggestion box available at the event.
Students are encouraged to RSVP to the event on CougarLink.
