UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Penn State University Police and Public Safety (UPPS) at University Park will host a Safety Fair from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 18, in front of the HUB-Robeson Center on Pollock Road.
In addition to the UPPS Patrol Division, the event will feature some of UPPS’s many specialized departments, including Emergency Management, Physical Security, Behavioral Threat Management, the Bomb and Tactical Response Team units, the Drone and K9 units, and more. Numerous emergency vehicles will be on display, and the department will be joined by outside first responder groups like Alpha Fire and EMS.
