Please join us in welcoming our new Chief of Public Safety, Darryl Walker, to Hornet Nation!

With 37 years of experience in law enforcement and public safety and a lifelong commitment to the City of St. Louis, he brings a vision centered on trust, respect, and community partnership. Drawn to Harris-Stowe State University because of its unique role as St. Louis' only HBCU, he is passionate about helping shape the future of the next generation while fostering positive relationships between public safety and the communities it serves.

His approach to campus safety goes beyond enforcement—focusing on presence, accessibility, and building meaningful connections with students, faculty, and staff. Through community-based policing and student-centered leadership, he is committed to creating an environment where every member of the HSSU family feels heard, respected, supported, and safe.

"Every member of the community should feel this is a safe place to work, learn, and thrive."
