VA Tech project: some helpful websites

I've been looking up a few websites for our VA Tech project. Here is what I have come up with:

http://www.vtreviewpanel.org/report/index.html
^ "The Virginia Tech Review Panel Report" This has many pages and is in pdf format. My mom found this this past year when she was working on the Cleveland school shooting case. She said it might be helpful

http://www.newsweek.com/id/32153
^ A newsweek article "How To Tell If Your School Is Safe"

http://www.montclair.edu/videos/CampusSafetyNews.pdf
^ Another long pdf format. "VT shooting puts spotlight on campus security"

http://www.alerts.vt.edu/safety_and_security.php
^ Some safety things VA Tech does. Could give us some tips on how to check if our campus is safe

http://www.dispatch.com/live/content/local_news/stories/2007/08/02/summit.ART_ART_08-02-07_B3_2G7GO2H.html
^ A Columbus Dispatch article I found "VA Tech tragedy spurs safety summit"

Hello Emily:
Thanks for the links on Virginia Tech shootings. The public safety information is very interesting and should be helpful for class discussions. I linked to your links from the class weblog.
I will mention your links in class.
