"Michigan State's Response to Mass Shooting Deemed Appropriate, but Trustees Overstepped, Report Finds"

A report commissioned by Michigan State University found that the university's response to a mass shooting in February was largely appropriate, but lacked "command and control" due to the involvement of the Board of Trustees. The report recommended training and guidance for trustees during emergencies, as well as improvements in support for victims, building security, and campus surveillance. The report also highlighted the need for additional security technology resources and a unified Security Operations Center. The university has already taken steps to address these recommendations.
