From reporter Michael Tobin in the Emerald, here: … In addition to being out of compliance with federal rules, the audit also found that some of the department’s firearms lack acquisition records.

Update: While I am not sure the AR-15’s, Tazers, ducked-up trucks are an improvement, Chief Matt Carmichael has done an enormous amount to improve the UOPD. And he’s somehow done it without spending any new UO money, so far: 4:25PM It’s taking him quite a while to get around to it,…

Great story by Hannah Golden in the Emerald about the gloriously over-the-top parties that our entrepreneurial Chinese undergrads are organizing. And also an excellent report by Bayley Sandy, headlined “Student leaders do their best to compensate for the UO Counseling Center’s insufficient funding”. Maybe VPFA Jamie Moffitt should raffle off…

7/20/2013 update: Are UO’s new armed police more likely to save lives or cost lives – by accident, “suicide by cop” or over-response? One of DPS’s previous directors was hired by former UO VPFA Frances Dyke, after a bungled attempt to stop underaged drinking at football games at his previous…
6/22/2013: Two stories from Eder Campuzano in the ODE: Guns … Tuition. How much will the conversion to an armed UOPD cost overall? Frances Dyke told the legislature it would be something like $66K. At one point she told the students and faculty it would save $76K. Jamie Moffitt won’t explain…
6/21/2013. Eder Campuzano has the story in the ODE. Last I looked UO paid the public safety chief more than the City of Eugene paid their police chief. They’re going to get guns too, big surprise. Still no accounting for the explosion in their budget, two years after we were…
