Jack the Bulldog to be sworn in to DPS canine unit
Posted by: Will Sommer in News, Vox Populi, tags: Crime Awareness Report, DPS, Jack the Bulldog, Jeffrey Van Slyke
The Department of Public Safety published the annual Crime Awareness Report (PDF) Tuesday, but all the good stuff turned out to be clerical errors. All the good stuff, that is, except for this front page picture of Jeff Van Slyke, Director of Public Safety, and Jack the Bulldog.
There’s a reason why Jeff and Jack are getting acquainted. Yesterday, Van Slyke told me that Jack is getting deputized into DPS–seriously. He said there’s going to be a photo-op with DPS officers in the Adopt-a-Cop program, and Jack is going to come along to be sworn into the canine unit. He speculated about the possibility of using fishing line to raise Jack’s right paw for a swearing-in.
It’s weird, but it’s not student informants weird, and that’s something to be grateful for.
