Commendations and Complaints
UAPD is proud to provide modern, quality law enforcement services to students, faculty, staff and visitors. In order for UAPD to continue providing the highest quality service, the performance of its employees must be closely monitored. The police department is sincerely interested in both rewarding above average performance and in taking corrective action in those instances where an employee fails to meet our standards. See how we have done over the years!
