Student Safety
Do you have a student in college?
A year ago you probably didn’t worry much about their safety on campus.
Then again, that was before the tragedy at Virginia Tech, which took the lives of 33 and reminded us that violence can occur anywhere, to anyone.
Universities and colleges across the nation have spent the summer updating and investing in school security plans. They’ve hired more police officers and counselors, expanded emergency communications to notify students and staff during an emergency. Some have even put locks on classroom doors.
But is your student actually any safer? And what can you do to help protect your loved ones?
I want to know your thoughts, your ideas. E-mail me at ssimpson@oklahoman.com
