Following recent active shooter hoax calls at other institutions, University Police Chief Fred Nichols met recently with city and county law enforcement and emergency personnel to discuss ways that Tennessee Tech can continue to be proactive in maintaining a secure campus and protecting students, faculty, staff and visitors.

“It’s always good to look at events happening around us, discuss how our plans work and stay in close collaboration with our local law enforcement partners,” said Chief Nichols following the meeting. “The safety of all Golden Eagles remains our highest priority.”
