VIRGINIA ASSOCIATION OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE EDUCATORS Edition # 4, Issue # 3 NEWSLETTER John B. Wilt, C.S.T, C.P.P., Editor & Publisher Spring/Summer 2008 president’s corner Campus Safety, Security Under Microscope: Part II Well, I’m making progress on my commitment one year ago to become a card-carrying CERT (Community Emergency Response Team) member: my name is on a CERT training participant’s roster for a future CERT class. I have also been paying very close attention to articles on campus security, particularly as they relate to (1) guns on campus, (2) troubled students; (3) response to campus emergencies and (4) prevention efforts to thwart violence on campus. Before I share a “bibliography” of articles on the above concerns--#1 through #4 above—I wanted the reader to know that the Center for Personal Protection & Safety (1-800-990-4541; [email protected]) has John Wilt released a training program called Shots Fired: Guidance for Surviving an Active Shooter Incident. The cost of the DVD is $495 and the order form indicates that Shots Fired is “currently being used by many Fortune 100 companies and over 275 colleges and universities across the U.S.” According to a June 27, 2008 Chronicle of Higher Education story, for another $1,000, “colleges can buy media files of the video to put up on their Web sites.” The following articles which have extensive comments on the concerns expressed above span a six-month period from March 2008 to August 2008: (the first set of articles are from the Chronicle of Higher Education) Date Title of Article/Source July 11, 2008 June 27, 2008 July 4, 2008 July 25, 2008 April 18, 2008 April 11, 2008 Supreme Court Strikes Down a Gun Ban and Raises Questions for College Campuses Colleges Wade Into Survival Training for Campus Shootings Campus Shootings: a Prevention Primer Police in the Dorms: Student Safety or Privacy Infringement 1.

Some historical groups responsible for maintaining the civil order of the day—slave patrols, frontier posses, vice suppression societies, the American Protective League, for example—now seem controversial when viewed through a contemporary lens.
