Active Shooter

An Active Shooter is an armed person who has used deadly force on other persons and continues to do so while having unrestricted access to additional victims.

If we can identify the individual who needs assistance prior to him picking up a weapon we have a far greater chance of of preventing such a tragedy. Faculty and staff members must be vigilant to the risk of violence on campus. Some behaviors to take notice of and report to Campus Safety are:

Unusually aggressive, odd, or scary behavior of students or coworkers;
Threats of violence or retribution, either serious or said jokingly;
Students or coworkers who are distraught or suicidal;
Overheard comments or rumors of some planned or intended violence;
Possession of a weapon

Let's be proactive rather than reactive! Here are suggestions from the Behavioral Intervention Team!
