A Farewell for Chief Beaty

As many of you know, Chief Kim Beaty will depart Canisius to assume a new role at the University at Buffalo next week. Please join me in wishing Chief Beaty well in her future endeavors on Monday, November 13, 2023, from 3:30 -4:30 p.m. in the faculty lounge in Old Main. We are appreciative of Chief Beaty’s service to the Canisius.

The search for our next Director of Public Safety has commenced.  The search committee is being chaired by Shana Richardson, director of the New Buffalo Institute and Mark Piatkowski, associate director of student life.

In the interim, Public Safety will be led by Lt. John Hach.  Lt. Richard Miller will assume oversight of parking enforcement efforts.  We appreciate their willingness to support their colleagues and our campus during this transition.
