One of the most exciting projects at Simmons this summer was the completion of work on Daly Field, a new public-private partnership that provides space for several of the College’s sports teams and a vital outdoor resource for the Allston-Brighton community.

Simmons Technology recently wrapped up our efforts to ensure that Daly Field is a connected space, with the infrastructure necessary for security, digital scoring, and Internet-connected audio-visual equipment.

Best of all, Simmons Athletics is now live streaming games from Daly Field! Whether you’re in the stands, across town, or across the country, visit athletics.simmons.edu to cheer the Sharks on to victory.

On September 1, 2016, Simmons welcomed Marjorie “Honey” Pike, our new Chief of Public Safety.

Marjorie brings almost 40 years of experience in law enforcement to the College. Before coming to Simmons, she served as Assistant Chief of Police at Vanderbilt University. Prior to Vanderbilt, she spent 33 years with the Nashville Police Department, rising through the ranks to Deputy Chief.

As Chief, Marjorie will provide leadership and a focus on engagement and communication with the entire Simmons community. She has a long history of promoting campus safety and she will use that experience to partner with students and Student Life to foster an ongoing dialogue about safety on campus.

We also want to thank our Interim Police Chief, Mel Batten-Mickens, for her service during the yearlong search for a new chief. Her work and leadership during this time have made our campus safer for all.

Please join us in thanking Mel and welcoming Marjorie to Simmons, as she takes on this important role at the College.
