The Tupd is great. They are paid well and cherry pick most of the best police officers from around the area. It’s a cushy gig
Yes the defund the police hashtag was misguided (and a gift to the right). If you want police reform crush their unions that protect the abuse, create a hashtag for that
Defund TUPD
Good luck students with the walkout. The Criminals are supporting you guys.

The Tulane police are there to protect the students from being targeted by local criminals who know to come uptown for rich kids, but also to protect the students from NOPD. It’s hilarious they would want to defund them. When’s the last time a Tulane Cop shot or killed someone ? (I really have no idea)

I believe they shot someone earlier this year or maybe it was in the fall. I definitely remember receiving those threat texts and emails from TUPD.Bicoastalwave wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 1:08 pm The Tulane police are there to protect the students from being targeted by local criminals who know to come uptown for rich kids, but also to protect the students from NOPD.

I suppose that I'm a fairly liberal fellow in that I believe one of the most important roles of government is to protect its citizenry, particularly the weakest and most vulnerable. I can't imagine any scenario in which abolishing the TUPD would offer additional protection to those on the Tulane campus. I just don't understand. I wonder how many parents of the protesting students would feel as confident in sending their kids to school in New Orleans if this layer of security was removed.
Perhaps we should also remove Tulane Campus Health in response to the COVID pandemic.
Nuts. Just nuts.
Here's a link to the Hullabaloo article about abolishing the department

So an estimated 150 out of 13,500. Nothing to see here.

the 150 must come from homes in a "gated community"...they see Audubon Place and think, it's all good here...gawd, I rememeber when Tulane SID, Jeff Seale got shot right off of St Charles Ave. on a Wednesday evening....

Be a Hero Today.... Adopt a Shelter Pet... The Beatles once sang "Can't Buy Me Love"... I disagree, unconditional Love can be bought, for the nominal adoption fee at your local Pet Shelter !

But I’m sure the media covered it as though the 150 lemmings matter.
Tulane is the University of Louisiana
