Students, community members, staff and law enforcement gathered to learn each other’s names and faces and build lasting relationshipsby bringing together law enforcement and the communities they serve to foster strong relationships. At UNT Dallas, there was a moment to acknowledge Dallas police officer Darron Burks,

UNT Police Lt. Deitra Greene grew up in Oak Cliff. As a young girl, she said she couldn’t have guessed she’d become a police officer at 40 and then go on to spearhead an event like this.“So, tonight is so special for me. It is about community. It’s about partnership. I never could’ve imagined it. But I truly believe that it’s my calling. It is my calling to bridge this gap,” she said. “Outside of this uniform, I’m a community member. Then I’m a police officer, so just bridging that gap.

Taylor said that while this was a lighthearted event, it held a little more weight for her because she was a friend of Burks's. “I knew him through my Greek organization. He worked with youth with us. He came out and spoke to our youth,” she said. “He stood for togetherness. He stood for wanting to make a change in lives.”
