We immediately huddled together as a college leadership team and reviewed our processes. We held a tabletop exercise the week of the shooting that week. We had gone over our plans and made sure our plans respond to everything required.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The behavior threat assessment committee is a MDC committee that convenes to assess threatening behavior reported by employees and students. It determines the appropriate steps following a complaint, which vary from alerting law enforcement, notifying the dean of students office to place holds on registration and \u00a0recommending mental health services. Members of the BTAC have to undergo specialized training.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bomb threats also cause MDC to assess its emergency programs. Last year, the school experienced three bomb threats across Kendall and North campuses. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cEach threat is a learning opportunity,\u201d Mendieta said. \u201cWe do what we call a <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">post mortem <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to see if there was anything that can be improved.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The College also has a comprehen<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sive emergency management plan, a 122-page plan detailing how the College should respond to emergency situations. It\u2019s <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">located on MDC\u2019s public safety and emergency preparedness website.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to the CEMP, in the event of a threat or an attack, the first step is to relay all information available to the police. Following that, the director of emergency management Yakir Fernandez, public safety officials and MDC campus leadership are notified. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the threat is serious enough and requires changes to operations, MDC Alerts are sent out with instructions on how students and employees should respond. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Only when law enforcement gives the \u201call clear\u201d are new alerts sent out to resume all campus activities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">T<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">he plan has been under review prior to the 2017 hurricane<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and the updated CEMP will soon be sent to web services to be uploaded online, according to Mendieta. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The plan was last reviewed on January 2015. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plans are always reviewed as part of a routine,\u201d Mendieta said. \u201cWhen major incidents occur they are also always, always opportunities for plans to be reviewed again. For sure.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The College aims to keep its employees up to date on its emergency protocol by running routine emergency drills at its campuses throughout the academic year. The emergency drills vary from full-scale drills across the campus to tabletop exercises. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Miami Dade College\u2019s Office of Emergency Preparedness is also part of the Florida Regional Domestic Security Task Force. According to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, the RDSTF is a task force of first responders from fire\/rescue, emergency management, public health, hospitals and law enforcement. The task force also works with schools, businesses and private industries to assess the state\u2019s vulnerability and coordinates efforts to help respond to acts of terrorism that affect the state. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On MDC\u2019s division of emergency preparedness website, there are links to inform the community about emergency situations such as active shooters and other dangerous situations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The College\u2019s OEP is also looking into updating college-wide technical security system infrastructure, which includes cameras, electronic locks and other facility securing initiatives.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI believe that the College does a great job protecting its community in accordance to national guidelines and its own emergency response protocols,\u201d said <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mdcthereporter.com\/north-campus-welcomes-new-dean-school-justice\/\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Raimundo Socorro<\/span><\/a>, dean of the School of Justice. \u201cIn all my time working here, I\u2019ve always felt safe coming in to work each day.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The College urges students and employees to report suspicious behavior to public safety officers or use the MDC Safety App LiveSafe. The app enables direct and discreet two-way communication with safety officials using text, picture, video and audio.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Safety
