comprehensive background investigations.\u0026nbsp; The second is an unequivocal refusal to tolerate violent acts.\u0026nbsp; The third is the use of a threat assessment team (TAT) as a key response

threatening to the campus community.\u0026nbsp; The team approach allows the supervisor or employee to meet with appropriate professionals at the same time and provide a broad perspective on how to handle a potential problem.\u0026nbsp; There may be times when only one or two team members will be called to respond to a particular incident.\u0026nbsp; Confidentiality is adhered to except when danger to self or other becomes apparent.\u0026nbsp; Federal laws require mandated reporting to appropriate authorities when potential violence to an identified person or workplace is
