With the growth of threats and violence in higher education
settings, college campuses are increasingly expected to have
systems in place to identify potentially aggressive individuals and
intervene to ensure the safety of the campus population. This book
will be useful for student affairs professionals as well as college
counselors, psychologists, social workers interested in the
practical management of aggression and violence on a college
campus. It will also be a valuable resource for those involved in
creating and running behavioral intervention teams and threat/risk
assessment teams. Ten case studies from both the community and
residential college settings provide a comprehensive overview of
campus violence and how to intervene to prevent it. Pertinent
background information is discussed as an introduction to these
narratives, such as the fundamentals of aggression and violence on
campuses; how these behaviors can impact students, faculty, and
staff; and what can be learned from past campus violence. Along
with discussion questions and a review of ways to approach each
situation, experts in higher education, forensic risk assessment,
law enforcement, and legal issues weigh in on each case study.
Their perspectives offer a context and broad base of opinions and
ideas on how each case could be handled. Additional examples for
further training of the college counselor are given through a
detailed look at almost 100 incidents of violence, including
thwarted attacks, rampage shootings, and hostage situations.
