From LexBot twenty-four seven, the University of Kentucky Police Department is taking time this week to celebrate the men and women who work to keep the campus community safe. The department is recognizing law enforcement professionals as part of National Police Week, which runs from May tenth through sixteenth. U-K police are encouraging students, faculty, and staff to join in acknowledging the dedicated service of officers who protect the campus every day. National Police Week is observed annually across the country to honor law enforcement officers and their commitment to public safety. The recognition comes as a reminder of the important role campus police play in maintaining security and fostering a safe environment for learning and working at the university. It's a meaningful opportunity for the campus community to show appreciation for those who serve and protect.
