In simple terms, an active listener is one that listens to understand. As a Resident Assistant (RA), Office of Information Technology employee, and leader, my goal for my junior year is to become a more developed active listener. In both of my employments on campus,…

Between 2000 and 2013, an estimated 160 active shooter incidents occurred within the United States resulting in 1043 casualties, 483 of which died (DHS, 2015).
