Education

Educational institutions—from public school systems and private schools to research universities and colleges—are exposed to a wide variety and a rising number of risks. Campus security and safety is a growing concern, especially given the number of violent acts that have taken place on school and college grounds in recent years. These institutions must also comply with governmental regulations, such as Title IX, the Violence Against Women Act and the Patriot Act to name a few, as well as protect themselves from additional exposures.
If not protected, institutions may experience reputational damage, loss of profitability and even compromised viability as the public and governing bodies expect even more accountability from schools, colleges and universities.
