Scott Thurmond, who led Birmingham’s police force until this year, is now officially in charge of campus safety at the University of Alabama. After months as interim chief, he’s stepping into the role full-time. For students, staff, and parents, this means a leader with real city experience is now shaping how the university handles everything from game day crowds to campus emergencies. What do you think this shift could mean for the community? How might his background in Birmingham influence campus policing in Tuscaloosa? #Education #College #UniversityOfAlabama
