18 KU officers patrol games
Staff shortage cuts police coverage of other campus areas
By Rich Cornell Kansan staff writer
Eighteen KU officers will control traffic, stop fights and prevent thefts and burglaries, said Jim Denney, KU police director.
Before, during and after tonight's basketball game, more than half of the KU police department's officers will regulate traffic and patrol Allen Field House.
Despite a continuing shortage of officers this semester, KU police will not cut back its support this season, Denney said.
Earlier in the semester, KU police LA. Jeanne Longaker said adequate patrol of KU's campus required eight officers instead of the five now patrolling during each shift.
there's no real way to reduce it," he said. "It taxes us, but we have no choice. The basketball games impact the entire campus."
the KU officers working during the game, Denney said. His department schedules the officers to the overtime assignments and bills the athletic department $1,500.

Last month, KU police hire five new officers, but they are still being trained. The department needs three more officers to be at full strength.

coverage, he said. Sometimes, an officer will make an arrest at a game and must complete paperwork hours to be allowed to police department pay for that work.
The Athletic Department pays for
Floyd Temple, KU assistant athletic director, said KU officers were needed for two reasons. First, two KU officers always escort game officials to and from the court in accordance with Big 8 regulations.
Second, KU officers are essential to games with intense rivals, he said.
"If any disturbance breaks out, they have the people to take care of it," Temple said.
