AU without the PD: looking to the past to change the future of policing on campus

This semester, Ripped from the Wall’s reporters looked into the current relationship between the American University Police Department, or AUPD, and the student body. We wanted to not only find out the changes the AU community is hoping to see for its police force, but also the department’s own perspective of their purpose on campus.
