On the last Sunday in September, this year occurring on Sept. 29, U of G recognizes Police and Peace Officers’ National Memorial Day by lowering the flags to half-mast.

Police and Peace Officers’ National Memorial Day is an annual opportunity to formally express appreciation for the dedication of police and peace officers who lost their lives in the line of duty and to offer condolences to the surviving families of those who gave their lives in the service of their communities.
