No one ever plans to be the victim of a violent attack, but as acts of violence continue to make headlines across the nation, it’s important to plan ahead and know what to do before being confronted with an emergency. To help students, faculty and staff be prepared to respond to a potentially life-threatening situation, Penn State has adopted Run, Hide, Fight, replacing StaySAFE as the University’s official active-attacker response.

Penn State has adopted the Run, Hide, Fight method to provide students, faculty, staff and visitors with the tools to think clearly and act quickly if faced with an active attacker. In addition to in-person training provided by University Police and Public Safety, WPSU and University Police have produced an online training video illustrating Run, Hide, Fight in action.
