Description

Over the past several years, American educational institutions have seen an increase in violence in general, but more specifically, gun violence by students. There have been many theories as to why American schools have become places of fear instead of institutions of learning. Moreover, the root causes of the increased violence that is occurring in our schools must be explored if our society is going to save our greatest resources, our children. Addressing Violence in the U.S. Public School System discusses how violence has played a significant role within the educational system. Covering key topics such as mental health, bullying, grief, and trauma, this premier reference source is ideal for industry professionals, policymakers, administrators, government officials, researchers, academicians, scholars, practitioners, instructors, and students.

A published author, Dr. Herron's research interests include family and community partnerships, child development, cultural diversity, African-American families, non-residential fathers, juvenile delinquency, and poverty. Dr. Joey Budd, Assistant Professor of Criminal Justice originally from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, teaches at the Louisville Education Center of Campbellsville University.

Dr. Budd was a law enforcement officer in Georgia after serving 11 years in the United States Air Force and is a veteran of the first Gulf War. Dr. Budd's first policing job was in a small town of fewer than 1000 people; there he had the opportunity to meet people and practice community policing. He then transferred to a larger department where he was an investigator working many types of cases and meeting diverse individuals. Dr. Budd's last law enforcement job was at a sheriff's office working as a deputy sheriff with a focus on traffic offenses, especially DUI's.
