Some incidents on campus have led to a change at Goshen College, as there is now a campus security director.
The college recently hired Al Mackowiak to be the college’s first ever campus security director. College leaders wouldn’t tell us if any specific crime led to this decision, but they did say they were planning this before professor Jim Miller was murdered in his home last October.
Mackowiak is retiring from the Goshen Police Department next week after 35 years on the job. He has been on campus several months preparing to work directly with students and staff.
“it will take a little time and it will take a process as far as evaluating some of the policies and everything that have been in effect,” said Mackowiak. “It’s just a matter of now starting on the ground floor and working our way up to having a good product here and a good service for the college community.”
Mackowiak will have four patrol officers to work with on campus to start with, but hopes to add more.
