Sure...but, as important as a job is, I'd rather know that students were safe. I can find another job. I would hope others would feel the same way--if not, sad.
Last year, I witnessed some students with what I thought to be guns right outside a door to the building I work in. Needless to say, I was shocked and didn't know if what I thought I saw was real. When I got back to my office, I told the other people what I thought I saw and we called the campus PD. They locked down the president's office and came to ask me questions. Turns out they were fake and the students were practicing a scene for a play they were working on where a person is taken hostage--why you would practice this outdoors is beyond me. I got a lot of razzing from my colleagues and even a little from the police--but after what happened this week, I'd definitely do it again because we just never know now.
