New director of Campus Safety named
December 07, 2007
Tony Berger has been hired as the new director of Campus Safety.
Berger will begin transitioning into the role on Dec. 17. Outgoing director Jesus Villahermosa’s last day will be Jan. 9, 2008.
Berger’s hiring continues the unique relationship PLU has with the Pierce County Sheriff’s Department. As a detective sergeant in the sheriff’s department, Berger is contracted with PLU to be direct Campus Safety.
Through this arrangement, PLU is able to bring a full-time director to campus who has an extensive background in law enforcement. It also provides the campus access to the sheriff’s department’s many resources.
Berger has been with the sheriff’s department since 1989. In that time, he has filled a variety of roles, including patrol deputy, juvenile investigations deputy, special assault detective, supervisor of the domestic violence investigations unit, and, for the last six years, supervisor of the crime analysis and information unit.
