As you know, in recent years, the number of violent incidents on college and university campuses has increased and this in turn requires increased vigilance and responsiveness on the part of faculty, as well as others, within the UC Davis campus community. Join fellow faculty members in learning more about appropriate responses in the event of a crisis-level campus incident. This session will provide information for identifying potential problem behaviors, responding to disruptive and threatening behavior, and immediate strategies to promote safety.  We will discuss this critical topic, including practical tips for what you can do, and the campus resources available to assist faculty in promoting a safe teaching, learning and working environment.

  • Matt Carmichael, Chief of Police, UC Davis Police Department
  • Don Dudley, Director, Student Judicial Affairs
