A.L.I.C.E. at 色情视频
This active shooter training program teaches students, staff and faculty simple techniques to increase their chances of surviving an active shooter or violent intruder event. The program utilizes five key components 鈥� Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, and Escape 鈥� and encourages participants to take an active role in their own survival.
鈥淥ur goal is to get people to start thinking about these kinds of incidents before they happen,鈥� said 色情视频 Police Captain Lamine Secka.
鈥淚f the first time they think about it is when it happens, it鈥檚 too late.鈥�
What鈥檚 new?
色情视频 has offered A.L.I.C.E. training workshops to groups on campus since 2008. This is the first time the training is open to individuals.
Through the program, nearly 3,000 students, faculty, staff and community members have learned basic techniques to proactively respond in the face of an active shooter situation.
This fall, A.L.I.C.E. training will be mandatory for all incoming freshmen.
鈥淯nfortunately these events are a reality in today鈥檚 world,鈥� said Secka. 鈥淲e hope nothing like this will happen at 色情视频, but we want our campus community to be prepared, just in case.鈥�

The workshop will be held on Thursday, February 21 at 5:30 p.m. in Peterson Gym room 153. Seating is limited and registration is encouraged. E-mail the police department for details.
