Melvin “Mel” Singleton Jr., 53, who most recently had been second-in-command to Commissioner Danielle Outlaw, is Drexel's new new vice president of public safety and chief of police.
As safety concerns mount around college campuses in the city, Drexel University announced Friday it had tapped a former top Philadelphia police official to serve as its new vice president of public safety and chief of police.
Singleton, who had risen to first deputy police commissioner in the department, will replace Eileen Behr, who retired June 30. The announcement, which follows a national search, comes as city college campuses are hearing more concerns from parents about the safety of their children, as violence surges.Singleton, a Southwest Philadelphia native and St. Joseph’s University graduate, said he was “honored and motivated” to begin his new job.
“Many Drexel parents have reached out to me to express their apprehension about the state of public safety on and around Drexel’s campus and wanting to know what we are doing to keep their children and all our students and employees safe,” wrote Fry, who has a daughter attending Drexel. “These concerns are entirely justified, and I share them.”
