I have to give Cary Israel credit for wanting to do something to prepare faculty, staff and students for the unlikely incidence of an active shooter.
On a scale of 1 to 10 for content, I rate it...well, let's just say this video is exactly why we need campus carry:

It's really not bad advice if you've already been stripped of your right to self defense. I would prefer to be armed instead.
The most interesting part is when they talk about what to do if you have no other options - get aggressive and attack the attacker. Well doh! Wouldn't that be much easier if I was armed????

It's just sad they have the actors holding up plastic chairs - nothing like giving people a false sense of security. And the one scene where all the students are sitting on the floor in the small room - well that's just wrong.
Get away. Create entropy. Do not ever back yourself into a corner where you have nowhere else to go. At least that's my opinion.
