A new online course at the University of Colorado is meant to help people recognize warning signs for violence in others and learn strategies for reporting what they see. CU’s Center for the Study and Prevention of Violence rolled out the course recently to help improve campus safety, the university said in a statement. The course suggests that people get involved when they see concerning behavior rather than act as bystanders. See article here.
