Interrogates the relationship between higher education and the carceral stateOver the last five years, headlines have thrust campus police departments from relative obscurity into the national spotlight. Campus constituents have called for campus police, as a tangible manifestation of the War on Crime within the sphere of higher education, to be disarmed, defunded, and abolished. Using a multidisciplinary approach that draws from the fields of history, American studies, ethnic studies, criminology, higher education, and sociology, Cops on Campus provides critical perspectives on the organization and social consequences of campus policing. Chapters uncover details of the structure and culture of university police—some of the best-funded and largest private police forces in the nation—and examine the institution in relation to racialized and gendered violence, racial profiling, and the surveillance of marginalized communities on and off campus. The volume also features interviews with students, staff, and faculty activists to showcase efforts to redefine and reimagine campus safety and explore alternatives for the future.

The Blackhawk TASER® X2 Duty Holster continues in the design of it's predecessor by having the Blackhawk SERPA Active Retention System in it's holster design. Using their detachable belt loop, the TASER® X2 can be removed from the belt without having to completely disassemble your duty belt. This holster also fits all existing SERPA platforms including duty belt loops, MOLLE, shoulder and tactical thigh platforms.

BlackHawk TASER X2 Duty Holster. Modelled after the popular Blackhawk X26 Duty Holster, the new Blackhawk TASER® X2 Duty Holster is a high performance holster with the same performance and quality you would expect from Blackhawk Tactical. The Blackhawk TASER® X2 Duty Holster is injection molded and provides serious protection around the trigger, digital readout window and the TASER probe housing. It has an intuitive release and a fast draw to give police officers the performance they need, even under stressful circumstances.

"This collection admirably provides a pathbreaking introduction to new work inspired by growing campus activism . . . [A] volume that opens doors and challenges intellectual complacency."

Extra safety features. In addition to the advanced auto-locking and quick release features that have made SERPA Auto Lock pistol holsters so popular, the new TASER® X2 holster is designed to automatically engage the TASER's safety when re-holstering. The trigger and trigger guard are completely enclosed while the TASER® is holstered. The release is operated with the trigger finger as part of a natural drawing motion. But the TASER is rocked back to remove it instead of the traditional straight draw. When mounted in a cross-draw position, especially, it can help prevent confusing your weapons under stress. An opening in the holster bottom lets water out to protect the cartridges…yet contains the probes in case of accidental activation.

"The true site of learning is not the college classroom but in the spatial and social borders enforced by campus police. Cops on Campus tracks the evolution of these forces from their founding to the present. Chapters ask why educational resources are dramatically devoted to restricting access, repressing political dissent, and violently shaping the contours of higher education. Academic workers struggling for living wages, housing, and dignity explain why they also challenge the expansion of the carceral state. As this book powerfully argues, the fight to transform higher education will redefine the meaning of security far beyond the campus gates."

"A critical, multidisciplinary analysis of university police. University students, employees, and neighbors should read this book to learn why campus police have become so common, and why they continue to meet resistance."
