We wanted to take a moment to congratulate our very own Deputy Chief Mark Gates.

Last night, Deputy Chief Gates was awarded for his career service in law enforcement by the Erie County Law Enforcement Foundation.

This award reflects years of unwavering service, professionalism, and commitment to public safety.

Your contributions have helped make this university a safer and stronger community and we cannot think of anyone more deserving.

Thank you for your service Deputy Chief!

We wanted to take a moment to congratulate our very own Captain Fletcher on attaining the position of permanent Captain!

Captain Fletcher was appointed to the provisional role in 2024 and has worked diligently to secure the permanent position. With this achievement, Captain Fletcher becomes the first civil service appointment Captain in the history of SUNY!

The Captain is known for leading with his heart and consistently doing what is best for his Officers, first-line supervisors, the UB community, and the command staff. As he continues in his role as Captain, his efforts will focus on building trust initiatives and addressing public safety concerns, further strengthening the relationship between the department and the University community.
