It’s been just over a year since a gunman killed Professor Zijie Yan in Caudell Labs. The shooting forced UNC-Chapel Hill into a three-hour lockdown. And even after an arrest was made and the all-clear sounded, sadness, fear, and anxiety lingered.

University leaders say they’ve been working to ensure that the campus is safe. Reyna Drake asked students and faculty how prepared they believe UNC is for another emergency.
