While Penn State police officers train regularly for potential active shooter scenarios, it is imperative all Penn Staters familiarize themselves with the University’s Active Attacker Response Program, which follows the Run, Hide, Fight model, as it provides options that can help to save lives in the first crucial moments of an attack. Run, Hide, Fight is based on three action steps that are designed to be easy to remember and act upon in an emergency: run if you can, hide if you can’t, and fight as a last resort.
