IUPD is committed to transparency and excellence in policing, and has prioritized implementing the police reforms that emerged from the 2014 President’s Task Force on 21st Century Policing.
Our community policing model focuses on community engagement and safety on all IU campuses. We continually strive to engage IU students, staff, and faculty in critical dialogue and be transparent in the work we do.
IU’s University Policies website offers a comprehensive guide to policies that apply across the entire university.
Some key IU policies that involve IUPD include:
IUPD participates in the Police Data Initiative, which promotes the use of open data by law enforcement agencies. One set of data we provide is information on our community engagement events.
Community engagement and partnerships are essential for effective community policing. One challenge in providing open data about community engagement is that it is often not tracked within police information systems since it is often unrelated to a call for service or a crime.
