June 1, 2023 – Chris Nicodemus Named Chief of Police

Dear Campus Community,

I am announcing today the appointment of Chris Nicodemus to serve as Chico State’s Chief of Police. For the past year and a half, he has served as interim chief, and during this time he has skillfully led the 39-person department and served as a critical source of reliable information in numerous incidents.

Chief Nicodemus’ dedication to public education and awareness, timely communication, and campus community-oriented policing support an environment for student success.

Please join me in congratulating Chief Nicodemus on his new official role.

Sincerely,

Gayle E. Hutchinson
