Active Shooter Response Training

This educational video, developed with expertise from a national emergency preparedness center, provides guidance on how to respond effectively during an active threat situation using the 'Run, Hide, Fight' strategy.

Recent events around the nation have raised the public’s awareness of active shooter situations, and the unfortunate reality that similar events can occur anywhere and at any time.

To keep the LSUA community informed about what to do in the event that a similar situation occurs on our campus, we encourage familiarizing yourself with the Active Shooter Response Training video.

LSUA Community members are encouraged to learn more about the “RUN. HIDE. FIGHT.” paradigm, which addresses any active threats that may occur. These can include mass shooting incidents, attacks with various weapons, or acts of terrorism.

Safety & Risk Management

LSUA promotes a safe campus through emergency planning, safety manuals, and training resources. From active shooter response to travel and driver safety, the university equips its community to stay prepared and accountable in diverse situations.
