Since the mass shooting on the Virginia Tech campus one year ago, schools across the county ave reviewed their safety standards. Alert systems were put under the microscope and some problems came to light. University of Wisconsin Madison Police say in the past year, the focus has been on prevention.
UW Madison Police Chief Susan Riseling says the police, staff and students are now more aware of what she calls red flags. “It’s a much more broad approach to figure out ahead of time who’s in trouble.” After the unspeakable tragedy one year ago, we learned the gunman showed signs of a problem long before the massacre.
