Over the last five years, headlines have thrust campus police
departments from relative obscurity into the national spotlight.
Campus constituents have called for campus police, as a tangible
manifestation of the War on Crime within the sphere of higher
education, to be disarmed, defunded, and abolished. Using a
multidisciplinary approach that draws from the fields of history,
American studies, ethnic studies, criminology, higher education,
and sociology, Cops on Campus provides critical perspectives on the
organization and social consequences of campus policing. Chapters
uncover details of the structure and culture of university
police—some of the best-funded and largest private police forces
in the nation—and examine the institution in relation to
racialized and gendered violence, racial profiling, and the
surveillance of marginalized communities on and off campus. The
volume also features interviews with students, staff, and faculty
activists to showcase efforts to redefine and reimagine campus
safety and explore alternatives for the future.
