Campus Police Services
Director Appointed
Vice-President, Administration and Finance, Eric Harbottle, announced the appointment of Karen McMahon as Director of Campus Police Services, effective Monday, August 27.
Ms. McMahon brings with her a strong background in policing, security and management. From her early working years as an RCMP officer, to her most recent employment as a manager at Canada Customs & Revenue Agency, her career experience has provided her with the knowledge and skills appropriate for this position.
Mr. Harbottle says that Ms. McMahon, in her role as director, will continue to build on the model for campus policing, security and parking that emphasizes both service and safety. It is increasingly important that Campus Police Services be a participant in the functions of the campus as we strive to maintain a safe study and work environment for all of us.
