Many high profile attacks have not occurred in L.A. or Detroit or NYC but in smaller communities around the country and world. The rural communities Great Basin College serves have always been considered safe from the major violent incidents. That is no longer guaranteed. All communities in the country have the unfortunate potential to experience and incident. The reality is one mentally ill person who thinks this type of act is their only option could live anywhere. Be sure you know how to Run, Shelter within or Resist (fight back) should you ever be in this type of situation. Attend the training offered each semester by the Director of Environmental Health, Safety and Security.
