Active threat preparedness
The safety of the Arizona State University community is vital.
The ASU Police Department urges all students, faculty and staff to watch the new active threat preparedness video.
The ASU-produced video provides invaluable tips for thinking, acting and reacting in potentially dangerous situations on ASU campuses and off-campus places frequented daily.
The ASU Police Department’s mission is to create a safe and secure environment for our community to live, learn, work, and grow in. The lessons taught in this video are life lessons that will extend far beyond your time at the university in whatever capacity you are in. Our hope is that you will find the lessons useful now and in the future.
