Council and department remarks detailed professional milestones noted in the resolution, including a city Leadership Academy completion in 2017 and a master’s degree in criminal justice from Southern University at Baton Rouge (earned August 2023), which the resolution cites as part of his continued development.
Ending: The council resolution was adopted during the June 24 meeting. Council members invited White and family to join for a group photograph and recorded the recognition in the official minutes.
