CSUSB Hires Threat Assessment Director and Forms Care Team

Keeping Cal State, San Bernardino a safe place for students, faculty and staff is the priority of its new CARE Team and its chair, Rob Morgan. The acronym CARE stands for Campus Assessment, Response and Education Team, which provides early intervention assistance for at-risk individuals, as well as education for the campus. “Since the Virginia Tech shooting of 2007, campuses around the U.S. have developed behavioral intervention teams,” said Morgan, who serves as the team’s chair and is the university’s director of Threat Assessment. “CSUSB, like many other schools, adopted a multidimensional approach mirroring a national standard developed by the National Behavioral Intervention Team Association soon after that tragic event.” Though it is centralized, the CARE Team also is multidisciplinary in its approach, involving trained members from various departments and offices on campus, including but not limited to, the University Police Department, the Office of Student Affairs, the university’s Auxiliary/Business Services and Risk Management office, and the university’s Title IX coordinator/ombuds. “This model puts CSUSB on the cutting edge not only in providing in-depth reactive capabilities but also in violence prevention on college campuses using a public health model,” Morgan said. The team's new role has included the development of its CARE Team website at http://www.csusb.edu/careteam, and anonymous online reporting of disruptive or dangerous behavior on campus. Morgan, who came to CSUSB in the spring, is trained as a clinical psychologist who earned his doctorate from Pepperdine University. He completed his master’s degree in forensic psychology at the University of Denver and his bachelor of science in cellular neuroscience at Tulane University.
