The storied past of security guard Doug Herman

There you are. Joking around in the hall. You goof off with your buddy, laughing as you walk down the corridor. You hear the slight buzz of a walkie talkie and turn the corner to see security guard Doug Herman. You may expect him to ask for your pass or walk you out of the school if it’s too late in the hour, but there is more to this South High fixture.

Doug Herman may be seen as a hardened security guard, just another guy who works at the school and nothing more. Dig a little deeper and you may see a military veteran, with two purple hearts and a silver star, who was integral in the struggle to regain indigenous culture, and everyday tries to keep the school on schedule.
