Yale University is a private Ivy League research university in New Haven, Conn. Founded in 1701, it is the third-oldest institution of higher education in the United States. It has a total undergraduate enrollment of 5,964 with a campus size of 373 acres. The Yale Police Department has primary responsibility for patrolling the Yale campus and in a supportive role to the New Haven Police Department as an extended patrol area. The historic Yale Bowl, with its Class of 1954 Field, is one of the true treasures in American sports. The famous Bowl has been a college football landmark, hosting NFL games, international soccer, lacrosse, tennis, concerts, TV advertisements, movies and the 1995 Special Olympic World Games.

This webinar will cover the design phase of the Yale Police Department’s existing radar layout at the Yale Bowl and the security challenges it has presented. It will also discuss the need to keep the historical nature of the Yale Bowl building in mind while designing a new surveillance system. In addition, the webinar will cover how the Yale public safety team is using the new surveillance system to identify a suspect to decide, in real time, whether or not to dispatch additional resources.


Michael Cruz is the Physical Security Systems Manager with the Yale University Department of Public Safety.
