Preventing Threatening Behavior
Clearly state your policies on your syllabus and remember to include:
Responding to Disruptive Behavior
Three things are needed for someone to hurt someone else and those are a victim, an offender, and a place where it happens. Managing a threat requires us to examine how we can impact all three of those variables to reduce exposure to victims.
Have a plan ready ahead of time.
Conduct a safety review with ASU Police that can help you with:
End the meeting or ask the disruptive individual to leave; allow him/her to return when he/she has calmed down.
Know the resources available and utilize them.
If necessary, call ASU Police and/or file a formal complaint with Student Rights and Responsibilities.
