I thought this was kind of interesting ...

The UC Davis Police Department will will hold training sessions starting Monday to "help members of the campus community increase their likelihood of surviving a shooting incident, like Virginia Tech's," according to a UC Davis press release.

The new community training will include how to:

-- escape, take cover and hide
-- make your body a smaller target
-- recognize opportunities to seize a weapon or overpower a gunman
-- make an effective 911 call for help
-- describe a suspect
-- follow police direction

Also, from the release:

"A shooting incident is among the top five hazards identified for this campus."

"The training at times could be unsettling for some. It includes a recording of a 911 call made from the school library during the 1999 massacre at Columbine High School ..."

What do you think? Useful or scary?
