While no standard campus safety measures would have stopped the Gainesville killer, perhaps the best way to commemorate the loss of Sonja Larson, Christina Powell, Tracy Paulcs, Manuel Taboada, and Christa Hoyt is to let student governments know what constructive steps they can take to protect their campuses from violence, Jan Shcrrill, the director of the Campus Violence Prevention Center, suggests five key safety areas to evaluate and improve: 1. Victim's Assistance. Arc there programs at your school to assist students who have been victimized by violent crime? 2. Information on Violence. How is information on crime distributed to students? Are students FOCUS ON ISSUES aware of the steps they can lake to protect themselves? 3. Rape Crisis. Is there a counselling center for women victimized by rape? NOTE; The Rape Treatment Center has launched a nationwide campaign to educate college students about rape. RTC has a wide array of materials available for student government use in campus educational campaigns, including a film entitled "Campus Rape," posters, and PSA's for television, radio and news media. RTC also distributes a comprehensive action manual called Sexual Assault on Campus: What Colleges Can Do, For more information, see "Resources" below. 4. Alcohol/Drug Treatment. More than half of all campus crimcs arc related to alcohol abuse. Arf— there facilities on your campus for students with alcohol and drug problems to seek help? 5. Training Programs, Arc there programs to tcach campus housing residents how to protect their community by reporting suspicious activity or confronting unknown people in their dormitories?
