New Public Safety Director Making Connections on Campus

Missouri Valley College’s new public safety director brings law enforcement experience to campus, along with a desire to connect with the college community.

James “Frankie” Goodman started his position this month. He is not shy about connecting with the faculty, staff, and the students.

“It’s great to be back helping people and protecting the campus,” Goodman said.

Goodman was previously a police officer with the City of Marshall. He graduated from the law enforcement academy in 2014.

“We’re thrilled to have Frankie on board and taking care of us,” said Dr. Terry Russell, vice president for student life. “He’s got solid experience, and an outstanding ability to make connections.”

In his spare time, Goodman said he is focused on his two children who are very active in sports in the Marshall community.
