CSHEMA Award – Year of Pivots – Preparedness in Uncertain Times;  Campus, Safety, Health, Environmental Management Association: Marketing Campaign Award . Honored by the Campus, Safety, Health, Environmental Management Association, this campaign targeted an academic year (between August and May) embroiled by COVID-19 impacts, shining a spotlight on the basics of emergency preparedness – despite the pandemic. With COVID-19, the pandemic solidified making an emergency event very real, very impactful and very personal to everyone. Pairing real events associated with the pandemic to campus preparedness topics, this campaign was eye-catching and quippy. Using catchy imagery and levity, each poster provided a nugget of information, with visually appealing high impact colors. This has made a HUGE difference in refreshing some of the emergency preparedness basics.

Team members Amy Orders and Todd Becker were invited to present at two national association conferences, CSHEMA and IAEM respectively. These programs highlighted campaigns and programs built for NC State specifically, but scalable to other institutions of higher education.  Additionally, both presented at the UNC System Emergency Management Safety and Security Conference on bomb threats and family reunification planning.

CSHEMA Innovation Award for Football Game Day Operations Dashboard – Game day operations for football require management of over 50,000 people in one location for 10+ hours. NC State’s Emergency Preparedness and Strategic Initiatives was tasked to respond to inevitable operational impacts on campus events during COVID 19 in 2021. Formulating plans to coordinate services centrally, manage safety and security operations in a shared approach both virtually and in-person was the goal. Operationalizing existing emergency preparedness and venue plans was the first step. The second step was centralizing all components of safety, security and athletics game day operations into one platform, for ease of information collection and ready access for responders.

Kristie Holsclaw
Certificate of Appreciation (Awarded)
Nominated by Lt. Hammonds

On July 7th, 2022, Detective Kristie Holsclaw responded to the Sheetz on Tryon and Jones Franklin to assist Wake County Sheriff’s Office in locating a suspect wanted for assault by strangulation, kidnapping and hit and run. She and other officers did not locate the suspect at Sheetz, but Det. Holsclaw decided to check the shopping center across the street. While checking, she saw a male that matched the suspect’s description sitting at a table. Det. Holsclaw radioed her location and informed everyone that she had the suspect. She was able to safely apprehend the suspect and maintain control of the situation until other officers arrived. Thanks to her work, a violent criminal was not able to escape. Her extra effort in this case is appreciated.

The efforts of D squad during this time period demonstrate their professionalism and commitment to the NCSU community. We commend this unit whose actions bring great credit upon D squad and the NCSU Police Department.

David Boggs
Employee of the Year (Awarded)
Nominated by ECO Laskowski

Our department is full of hard working employees, both sworn and civilian. While many either take on more responsibilities than are asked of them, or make it their ambition to serve others, David Boggs exemplifies these traits beyond anyone else. David spends his days mostly behind the scenes reviewing, fixing, and upgrading equipment, radios, software, reports, and anything else that is asked of him. From the ECC to officer vehicles, David goes beyond the phrase “Jack of all Trades” and instead is a “Master of Many” as his job requires him to not work within one specific discipline but have a hand in almost every technical aspect of running a police department. David is that “Man behind the curtain” whom the public never gets to see or hear about yet is an absolutely invaluable piece of the working machine that is our department. David’s professionalism and strong work ethic are only rivaled by his wonderful disposition and attitude. He never gets dragged down by having multiple people tugging at him all day long, and not only does he fix the issues for all those people, he does so with pleasure. Always quick with a joke and a smile, David exudes positive morale. I am happy to announce David Boggs as the NCSU Police Department’s Employee of the Year.

Officer Criser, Stokley, Callahan, Sgt. Graham and Lt Peebles all started looking in the woods and near the water. A drone was brought in by RPD.

Off Duty officers who came in and helped with patrolling the campus once they came back from an assignment at UNC. Officer Shillingburg, Officer Doyle, Officer Pilkington and Officer Nguyen. Officer Hudson was off duty heading home and checked on a subject who matched the description but it wasn’t the victim.
