"In Understanding and Preventing Campus Violence, experts in law, HR/employment policy, psychology, criminal justice, and education offer sage, real-world advice to campus administrators, parents, students, and employees on how to prevent and manage campus violence. They offer insights into the reasons behind violent acts and provide prevention techniques, methods students can use to protect themselves, and therapeutic techniques for the following types of violence: bullying, sexual harassment, cyber-stalking and cyber-harassment, intimate-partner violence, rape, homicide, robberies, and other violent crimes. The book also addresses the legal responsibilities of schools, as well as the psychological fallout in the aftermath of violence. Featuring interviews with student victims and providing sample policies and training programs, Understanding and Preventing Campus Violence will help students learn to spot situations of potential violence, help teachers use classroom exercises to raise awareness and prevent future violence, and help college administrators and managers learn to safeguard the people and assets in their care."--Jacket
