The Lantern recently published the story of The Ohio State University police officer Officer Cassi Shaffer and how her humble upbringing has led to a lifetime of service.
“As a child, we didn’t have a lot,” Shaffer told The Lantern. “So I learned the importance of helping other people when you can. I go out of my way to help people.”
Shaffer was honored as OSUPD's Officer of the Year during an award ceremony on January 24, 2018, and days later received a standing ovation during the Ohio State men's hockey game versus Michigan.
