This practical pamphlet explores recent campus events - what happened, how the college responded, and steps colleges are taking to prevent similar violence. You get an overview of areas where colleges are especially vulnerable - including bombs and other threats, domestic violence, crimes of bias, riots, rape, campus rituals, and violence by employees and outsiders. Plus you get a look at recent court decisions involving rape and sex offenses, weapons, physical assault and other campus crimes so you understand when colleges are liable for specific incidents and how your reaction could affect the court's decision. You'll also find forms, guidelines and checklists as well as a listing of violent incidents on campuses and the full text of key court decisions and the Clery Act.
