About the Department

The OLLU Police Department is comprised of dedicated men and women who choose to protect and serve our community and this family of faith. The uniqueness of the OLLU Police Department derives from the talent and skillsets of each officer who contributes to the team. The team’s success is due to the outstanding efforts of its direct patrol of the university community to deter and prevent crime, as well as the continuous support of our community’s vigilance and cooperation in crime prevention. Truly a team effort.

The UPD team consists of an administrative assistant, student work studies, Patrol Officers, Patrol Sergeants, Lieutenant and second in command, and the Chief of Police. Together, the UPD team’s primary duties and responsibilities are to serve and protect our campus community. All UPD officers are licensed Texas peace officers by the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE), and each police officer has authority to apprehend and arrest anyone involved in criminal activity on our campus.
