PEWAUKEE
- After more than 13 years working in the criminal
justice program at Waukesha County Technical College,
Brian Dorow has taken a job in Washington, D.C, but
it’s still related to law enforcement.
Greg
West, dean for the WCTC School of Protective and Human
Services, said Friday that Dorow’s last day at the
school was Feb. 28 and he began his new position as the
assistant secretary for state and local law enforcement
under the Department of Homeland Security’s office for
state and local law enforcement on Monday. It is an
appointed position.
At
WCTC, Dorow was the associate dean of criminal justice,
homeland security and counter-terrorism. His earlier
career included time as a Waukesha Police officer.
“For
what it’s worth, I think it’s a role very wellsuited
to his skillset,” West said. “Brian is great at
collaborating, at forming partnerships and building
bridges.”
He
added that he believes the position Dorow has now will
make him responsible for maintaining relationships
between the federal government and local law enforcement
agencies.
West,
who was Dorow’s supervisor, was hired about the same
time as Dorow in August 2004 at WCTC.
Dorow
helped create the WCTC’s interactive street scene, as
well as its gun range, which is open to the public and
law enforcement agencies.
As
a private citizen, Dorow conducted security for
President Donald Trump when he visited the area. He also
attended the president’s inauguration.
Once
he took the position in D.C., Dorow was unable to
comment on his new role.
