31. Alert
All to often are we too busy to really notice what is going on
around us.
■
We live in a “get it done now” society. Everything is fast: fast
food, fast internet, fast text, etc.
■
Do you notice that just about everyone has a cell phone.
Look around-how many are on your phone now?
■
Could you describe the person beside you walking into
class?
■
Could you answer how many people were around you on
your way to/from class?
■
32. Alert
According to SafeKids (a non profit organization that
focuses on the prevention of injuries to children)
■
-25 percent (could be higher) of pedestrian injuries
involving 16-19 year old are caused by cell phones.
How many of you can honestly say..... you have about
walked into someone else or another object because you
were paying more attention to your cell phone that what
was going on around you?
■
37. Walk
Walking near a group or with another person can
reduce the availability of an incident occurring
■
According to The Department of Justice
■
-Most of the individuals that are harmed by another
individual were alone at the time of the occurrence
-This would indicate that random acts of violence are
similar to a lion picking off its prey which is usually the
lone prey or the easier prey to target.
39. Walk
I am sure most of you have heard recent news stories
about:
■
■
Mobs attacking single individuals in Chicago with the
intent to rob the individual
■
The recent attack on a fellow STLCC student on the
Meramec campus
■
The teens that beat a veteran in California
40. Attentive
Be attentive to people around you.
■Be attentive for your own safety.
-Avoid accidents
-Avoid potential risks
■
41. Attentive
WalMart follows the 10 foot rule
Most companies train their employees that the number one
way to reduce safety risks, along with theft in the workplace is
just the simple acknowledgment of the customer near the
employee
Acknowledgment is a part of everyday human life.
-Lawyers, bankers, investment firms acknowledge their
clients
-Doctors, nurses, pharmacists acknowledge their patients.
47. Report
Report any suspicious behavior.
■
You could potentially prevent an incident on campus.
■
You could even save a life!

education.
