A tradition was continued by 37 graduates when commencement was through June 29 at the Iowa Law Enforcement Academy in Johnston. Among those taking part was rural Fairfield resident Kris Metcalf who had his badge pinned by Chief Tom Baker of the Fairfield Police Department and officially welcomed Metcalf to the force.
