Tiffany Morey of SOU’s CCJ program is an excellent choice to kick off the Faculty Insights podcast series. Prior to joining SOU, Ms. Morey had what she calls her “first career.” She worked in Las Vegas as a police officer, becoming part of the 1% of the force that was female. She has been pushing barriers ever since.
Not only was she one of the first patrol officers, but she was also the first officer to become pregnant. This moved her out of patrol and into Community Relations where she presented the human side of police and law enforcement through a variety of programs, including dealing with a gang-infested neighborhood with a high murder rate. Some of her other firsts were learning to ride horses for the mounted patrol division and power slide a mountain bike. A highlight for her was pulling over a semi-truck from her mountain bike—no telling who was more surprised that it worked!
Tiffany eventually became a part of the now-famous CSI Las Vegas team, which is a lot different than what you see on television. She could have stayed there her whole career, but she wanted to climb the ladder and take a shot at breaking through the glass ceiling.
Her second career brought her to Ashland and SOU where she gets to do “a lot of the fun stuff” in the program. She points out that SOU has one of the top programs in the country and has warm words for her co-workers. She offers some good advice for prospective students interested in law enforcement about the impact of social media and drug use on future jobs, regardless of their major. The interview concludes with a positive report of local law enforcement and the expanded numbers of women in the profession. I hope you’ll join us and spend an enjoyable half-hour. And if you see a mountain bike behind you flashing red and blue? Pullover.
