School Shooting

First I would send out an e-mail through the school e-mail list. Stating that we are sorry to inform you of the loss of a fellow student. We ask that your thoughts and prayers be with his family and friends as they deal with hard times. I would publicize an on-campus vigil. The University would need to show that they are worried and do care about the interests of their students. They would need to set up professional counseling and talking areas. The university would need to urge students to come forward with any information regarding the murder. I would send out a press release informing the public that university is aware of the importance of the situation and the need to take steps to insure that this doesn't happen in the future. Ensure the public that school will do everything in their power to prevent this from happening while not making it seem that it was anything the school did.
