WESTBROOK westbOO2@uwp.edu The shootings at Virginia Tech on April 16 left ripples that were felt by every school in the country, UW-Parkside included. The day following the tragedy, John Keating, chancellor of Uw-Parkside, sent out an e- mail to all students enrolled at UW-Parkside, which, in part, expressed sympathy toward the Virginia Tecb campus on behalf ofUW-Parkside. "I want to assure the campus community that we are very cognizant of the fact that any' University is vulnerable to such horror because of the very nature of a University as an open and welcoming institution. UW- Parkside is no exception," the e-mail stated, in part, and went on to emphasize that Parkside Police officers are very well trained in such matters and that administration also participates in table-top scenarios of campus disasters. Michael Marzion, chief of Parkside Police said he met with all of the UW-Sysrem chiefs by teleconference on Tuesday, April 17, and discussed their crisis response plans, assessing both their strengths and weaknesses. He also said that further meetings with students, faculty. and staff Of UW-Parkside would be held LO further address such issues. Marzion said that, altbough no more officers were being hired presently, the coverage by the current officers was exempJary. "1 have three officers on from 1:00 in the afternoon to 5:00 at night, and then Ihave three officers on from 9:00 at night to 1:00 in the morning, and those are the times when we have the highest level of calls," Marzion said. He went on that three officers on duty at once is a sufficient number for this university. Marzion reiterated the chancellor's statement, saying that he and those in the chancellor's cabinet practice the crisis response plan annually through table- top exercises involving various scenarios. Marzion said that there would be a scenario presented to the group "and we spend hours talking about how we would respond, what resources we would direct. how the university would handle the siruation," he said, "so we're pretty well-versed as a university on how to apply OUf crisis response plan, and I think that we' d gel some measured outcomes or some consistent outcomes if we implemented that plan." Parkside Police are already given active-shooting training, which concerns what to do with a shooter on campus or in the dorms, according to Manion, and they will be doing additional .training soon with the Kenosha SWAT team. UW-Parkside's Crisis Response Plan can be located on the university's Web site by using the "Campus Safety" link on the home page and, subsequently, the "Safety Department" link on the Parkside Police and Public Safely page. The plan's purpose is "to provide University of Wisconsin- Parkside (UWP) administrators with procedures to follow in the event of a crisis situation," according to the site.
