Campus Response to a Student Gunman
← The Battle between Images and Words | Corporate Social Responsibility → |
This article is about a study which was done by Kelly Asmussen and John Creswell after an alarming increase in campus violence. It is a qualitative type of study because it tries to explore the conduct, attitude and experiences of university students, and of the campus security and administration. This type of research attempts to get detailed views from participants, and extracting information from them takes a longer time. The research topic is ‘how campuses react to various incidences of violence within their premises.’ The study touches on every person within the campus premises. Those who took part in the study include: members of the administration, students and the campus employees. Several researches on this topic have been carried out in the past and most of them have portrayed that there have been various concerns on the issue of security within campuses which have been neglected, or shown little interest (Asmussen, 1995).
The research problem is about the issue insecurity within campus premises, and so the study seeks to establish better ways of dealing with this issue. Statistics indicate that gun-related violence is on the increase especially within campuses. Even though campus administrations and the police usually act speedily by taking drastic measures after such incidences occur, they fail to take preventive measures so as to avoid a repeat of the same. The researchers in this study collected data mainly through personal interviews. They asked the participants in-depth questions and their views on a one to one basis. The main subject matter which is evident in this study is that of insecurity. Campuses have increasingly become insecure over the years. A student cannot guess the intentions of his/her fellow colleagues and hence most of them live in fear all the time. Another theme that is brought out clearly in this article is negligence. Indeed, this is illustrated by the fact that students can come to class armed with guns. Campuses need to come up with a system where weapons are kept out of the school compound. The research question acts as a guide, it seeks answers to the topic on security concerns within various universities (Asmussen, 1995).
This study suggests that campus administrators and relevant security organs should act fast when issues of insecurity arise within the campus. The campus police must be able to arrest and prosecute the perpetrators very fast, while the administration should deal with the aftermath in a manner that will prevent future occurrences of the same problem. For example, the administration should try and counsel the affected students, or suspend the culprits from school. However, it is unfortunate that most campuses are not equipped to prevent such ingenious acts. Beneficiaries of this study

I was quite satisfied with the results of my paper order. EssaysEmpire.com sure has some good writers! I thought it might just be some college kids who were writing in their spare time to earn some extra bucks. No! EssaysEmpire.com hires legitimate writers. They all seem to be well educated and intelligent, too. My paper was terrific! |

So often, when one deals with customer service, he or she is treated rudely. That was not the case with EssaysEmpire.com. The agents were helpful and friendly, knowledable and concerned. I, for one, was astounded with their competence. When it came down to the actual written material that I ordered, it was much better than I had anticipated. There are clearly some expert writers who work for EssaysEmpire.com. I would rate this writing service as exceptional, 5 stars out of 5 stars. I will happily return when I need help with another written work. |

I had a hard time articulating what my professor wanted, so I was able to speak straight to my writer. After I had explained a little bit, I could tell he understood everything. He then took the ball and ran with it, so to speak. He wrote my paper in two days and it was the picture of perfection! I am very grateful that he knew what to do and how to do it so perfectly. |

Your writers did an excellent job writing my four papers last semester. I don’t think I could have possibly made it through the semester without any help of EssaysEmpire.com. I deeply appreciate the help |

Today was the perfect day to make an A+! It convinced me that there are solutions to problems that seem impossible to solve. When I realized that the due date for my paper was coming up quickly, I felt like there was nothing I could do. If I didn’t hand in my paper on time, I would get an F and fail the course. However, I had to study for 3 major exams and write two other papers. My roommate suggested that I turn the paper over to you guys, which I did, and voila! I got an A+ on it and the problem was solved. Thank you, EssaysEmpire.com and to your writers and staff. You are a great writing service. |

I had to turn on my laptop for the express purpose of writing to you. I had to let you know what lifesavers you people are! I had never even considered hiring a professional writer to help me and was almost resigned to dropping out of school altogether. Then, I thought about it, and asked myself what it would hurt to try EssaysEmpire.com for just one paper. That paper was written astonishingly well! From that one paper, I learned many of the things that I did not know about writing. It was perfect, so I learned all about formatting in the APA style. I learned a lot, so I want to thank you for that. |
