Online Training-Responding to Violent Incidents on Campus

In order to educate our community as broadly as possible about a very important safety matter, we are offering updated online training about what to do if there is a violent incident on campus. The training offers common sense information about what each of us can do to protect ourselves during an incident. We have chosen a module that is specifically designed for higher education settings.

To access the training, simply click on the link provided and enter your Macalester user name and password. Please take a few minutes to view this important training and take the short quiz at the end.  This information could help protect you or those you care about from very serious consequences either at Macalester or, as we have seen, elsewhere in your life.
