Subject: Safety Options for Education
“Duck and cover” is done. The safety advice from the Civil Defense drills of the 60s is inadequate to meet the threats of the 21st Century.
A group of friends and alumni of Virginia Tech have raised the money to host a Safety Options Presentation at 10:00AM, May 5, at the Blacksburg Recreation Center, in Blacksburg, home of Virginia Tech.
The purpose of the seminar is to make the public, the media, and the legislature aware of the range of education safety options available.
Response Options will demonstrate some of the safety training they teach for middle school and high school students and discuss how similar training might be used for colleges.
The theme of the seminar is “Hokies Will Prevail.”
