Carol Archbold, Walter F. and Verna Gehrts Endowed Professor of criminal justice, was featured in a recent WalletHub.com article, titled “Should Police Wear Body Cameras? Experts Pick Sides.”
The Oct. 5 article by John S. Kiernan examines the nationally debated topic from a variety of perspectives, with input from 16 faculty members from across the country.
In her comments, Archbold cited several studies and noted, “There is a growing body of research to support the assertion that body cameras can be an effective tool for the oversight and accountability of police officers.”
Archbold joined the NDSU faculty in 2005. She earned her bachelor’s and master’s degrees at the University of North Dakota and her doctorate at the University of Nebraska, Omaha.
Among her honors are the 2013 Chamber of Commerce Distinguished Faculty Service Award and the 2011 Outstanding Research/Creative Activity Award by the College of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences.
As a student-focused, land-grant, research university, we serve our citizens.
