Faculty of Arts tightening security measures in wake of December shooting

The Prague Faculty of Arts of Charles University, which was the target of a deadly attack by a lone shooter last December, has started introducing measures to increase security. Changes are being made in the entrance lobby so that people entering the building will be under bigger scrutiny and there are plans to improve the existing camera system and introduce panic buttons that people can use in an emergency. The faculty is also planning an autumn drill to prepare students and employees for crisis situations . Thursday will mark three months since the tragic incident in which a student of the school shot 14 people dead and wounded 25 before committing suicide.
