Marshall University Police Officer Earns Top Academic Honor at Academy

There were 38 individuals in Eastes’ class who completed the training in November.
“We are incredibly proud of Patrolman Eastes,” said James E. Terry, director of public safety at Marshall. “The academy is always a grueling process but layer the demands of COVID-19 on the training and the course became even more challenging. He is a great asset to our department, not to mention a very successful student.”
In addition to his position with MUPD, Eastes is a student at Marshall studying cyber forensics and security.
“I’ve always wanted to be a police officer and am very happy that Marshall has provided me with this opportunity,” Eastes said. “To complete the academy, I had to take the fall semester off, but I’ll be back in class at Marshall in the spring.”
