events in higher education institutions. I belong to a member institution of the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities (CCCU). In my review of literature, I have not found research which is specific to this higher education association and the unique culture and belief system of its membership. I will specifically focus on CCCU member institutions in North America in the states of California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, Utah, Alaska, and Hawaii. Statement of the Problem According

This article is from the ‘Clean Technologies and Environmental Policy’ and the authors of the article are from the Polytechnic University of Turin, Italy. The intended audience of this article are the airport planners and policymakers, who can use this study to define a feasible environmental policy. The purpose of this study is to explore the potential of hydrogen as a fuel

It can be used to analyze a person, place, event, or other subjects in order to help discover mitigating issues, misconceptions, failures, trends, or recommendations (USC, 2010). Case studies will be used to gain a better understanding of situations and topics to help others make better policies, procedures, and decisions (USC, 2010). Seung-Hui Cho was born in South Korea and emigrated with his family to the United States as a child (Shapiro

On April 16, 2007 a student, Seung Hui Cho, at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech) in Blacksburg, went on a shooting rampage and opened fire on his fellow students and Virginia Tech community members. The shooting took place in the early hours of the morning when many students were preparing for classes. The first two shootings occurred at 7:15 am at West Ambler Johnston Hall. 21/2 hours later after Cho had changed his blood stained clothes, deleted his e-mails, removed

at the campus of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in Blacksburg, Virginia. Seung-Hui Cho a senior at Virginia Tech committed two separate gun attacks approximately two hours apart. Tragically, Cho shot students in an academic building and multiple residence halls before committing suicide. In the deadliest shooting rampage at the time in American history: 17 students wounded and another 32 people killed. Ronald Reagan, the president of the United States at the time of the

believes if students don’t have the right to carry they will be victims of school shootings. Although Gun-free zones prohibit guns on school grounds, they attract shooters committed to causing a shooting spree. One example would be the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State massacre in April 2007 in which the students and teachers were defenseless because their campus was required gun-free zones. Studies have also been shown that Gun-free zones are not safe as people think (Burnett). Often in a mass

In 2007, 32 students and teachers die after being held at gunpoint on the campus of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University by a student, Seung Hui Cho, who attended the school later on dies from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. In all 27 students and 5 faculty members died. I really think that guns shouldn't be allowed on college campuses at all because it will cause a distraction from the learning environment, would lead to an increased number of suicides by college students, a gun
