One year after the events of Sept. 11 only minor changes have been made to security at Sacramento State campus.

Since Sept. 11, the campus police have been on hightened awareness. Police officers received specific training on how to respond to terrorism and weapons of mass destruction, Department of Public Safety Investigator John Hamrick said.

“We received some off-campus hands-on training dealing with the use of different tactical responses,” Hamrick said.

He said that no changes have been made to evacuation plans on campus, which are still quite ambiguous according to some students.

Joe Bartlett, a Sac State senior, said that he is not sure what he would do if there were a disaster on campus.

“I feel pretty safe here,” Bartlett said. “I bet there is an action plan (for disasters) but I am not sure what it is.”

The single-page evacuation plan on Sac State?s website states that the Dean or the Dean?s designee is the only person who has the authority to declare a university-wide evacuation. No other details are given concerning university-wide evacuation plans.

One year has passed since Sept. 11, and many students say they feel secure on campus, and that the police are doing a good job.Bethany Hudson, a junior at Sac State agreed with Alcantar. “I?m not concerned about terrorism on campus,” Hudson said.

The campus police department provides a video that is available to the public concerning biological threat safety with topics such as how to respond to Anthrax.
