On Jan. 29, six weeks after the shooting at Brown University in Providence and the killing of an MIT professor, Emerson College President Jay Bernhardt’s office announced it was enrolling all students in a mandatory Active Threat Safety Training course. The course includes one eight-minute video and a short questionnaire with a single checkbox for students to acknowledge that they have watched the video. Two days later, the suspect, Claudio Manuel Neves Valente, shot and killed MIT Professor Nuno Loureiro in Brookline, Mass. The video asks students to remain hypervigilant, but does not mention what part the college’s administration would have in handling such a threat. Additionally, Emerson has a LiveSafe, a safety app, where students can report tips and safely walk in the city.
