  • POLICE AUTHORITY District
    Wayne County Community College POLICE AUTHORITY District The safety and security of all students, faculty, staff, and visitors are of great concern to the Wayne County Community College District (WCCCD). In an effort to enhance the District’s campus safety services WCCCD’s three Detroit campuses are gaining a higher level of security staff. WCCCD Security Police Authority, a un-armed law enforcement agency now has complete police authority to apprehend and arrest anyone involved in illegal acts on the campus. In the event of a major offense (i.e., aggravated assault, robbery, and auto theft) the WCCCD Security Police Authority would report the offense to the local police and pursue joint investigative efforts. If minor offenses involving college rules and regulations are committed by a student, the campus Security Police Authority may also refer the individual to the disciplinary division of Student Affairs. With oversight from the Michigan Commission of Law Enforcement Standards (MCOLES), a division of the Michigan State Police, the Police Authority was also approved by the Wayne County Prosecutor and the Detroit Police Chief. WCCCD has officers sworn in as Security Police Officers, also referred to as "Arrest Authority" Security, and have misdemeanor arrest authority while on active duty, on the District’s premises and in full uniform. The Director of Campus Safety is responsible for licensure and all of the officers that have the arrest authority must meet minimum requirements related to age, security or law enforcement experience and suitable background including absence of any felony conviction and specific misdemeanor convictions. The law requires these employees to be trained as required by the Michigan State Police.

    Humanity Interrogated: Empire, Nation, and the Political Subject in U.S. and UN-controlled POW Camps of the Korean War, 1942-1960 by Monica Kim A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in The University of Michigan 2011 Doctoral Committee: Professor Penny M. Von Eschen, Chair Associate Professor Sarita See Associate Professor Scott Kurashige Associate Professor Henry Em, New York University Monica Kim 2011 For my parents Without whom, this never would have been written ii Acknowledgements It has been my incredible fortune that a vision shared also means a life shared. And much life has been shared in the fostering and development of this project, as it moved from idea to possibility to entirely unpredictable experiences in the field and in writing. My dissertation committee members have been involved with this project ever since the beginning. I am indebted not only to their commitment to and support of my ideas, but also to their own relationships with work, writing, and social justice. By their own examples, they have shown me how to ask the necessary, important questions to push my own scholarship constantly into a critical engagement with the world. Penny von Eschen has granted me perhaps one of the most important lessons in scholarship – to write history unflinchingly, with a clarity that comes from a deep commitment to articulating the everyday human struggles over power and history. A wise teacher and an invaluable friend, Penny has left an indelible imprint upon this work and my life, and I am excited about working together with her on projects beyond this dissertation.
