MU to hold active shooter training as classes officially begin
The University of Missouri will hold the first of two active shooter trainings Monday.
Tomorrow’s training will coincide with the start of fall classes at Mizzou.
The event will take place at 10:30 a.m. at Jesse Hall on Mizzou’s campus. The second training is happening September 12th.
Both trainings will be hosted by Mizzou’s Division of Operations, the MU Police Department and the Department of Emergency Management.
MU officials say they want everyone to have the opportunity to learn how to react in the event of a violent attack.
Last spring, safety officials at the university also filmed an active shooter training video.
Both trainings are free and open to the public.
