College and university Homicides
The multiple homicides at Virginia Tech University in 2007 spurred reconsideration of security issues on college campuses. Conduct an Internet search of news reports (print and video) specifically looking for evidence of campus police/security interviews about how colleges and universities are responding to this concern. How well have the security professionals represented the organizations they represent? Be sure to post links to the reports you located. What advice could you give these individuals and organizations about their public relations?
QUESTION 2
Go to the website for the American Society for Industrial Security (ASIS) at http://www.asisonline.org/
Looking at the organization’s website, what resources are available to you as a security manager? Are their opportunities for collaboration and partnerships with other security professionals? With law enforcement? Are their educational opportunities? Do they encourage you to get involved in membership and administration? Assess the value of ASIS in terms of building partnerships and developing security plans.
QUESTION 3
What if you were awarded $50,000 for field research? What would you be interested in studying/observing?
QUESTION 4
What if you wanted to research crime in a dangerous area? Would you use a camera? Why or why not? Be specific.
