Chief Craig Stone Talks Campus Safety and Busting DPS Misconceptions on the ‘’Cuse Conversations’ Podcast

What does it take to keep 21,000-plus students safe on a thriving residential campus in the heart of an urban area? We attempt to answer this question and others on the latest episode of “’Cuse Conversations” featuring Associate Vice President and Chief of Campus Safety and Emergency Services Craig Stone. Chief Stone joined the team at Syracuse University this past spring and his team works 24/7/365 to protect our community and ensure the University is a safe place to live, learn and work.

This interview covers his new role and his background in campus safety and law enforcement; the priorities for his tenure as chief; ways the Department of Public Safety (DPS) is inviting community members to engage with it this fall; common misconceptions about DPS; and strategies for protecting yourself and your belongings on campus.
