The former president of Umpqua Community College, who retired at the end of June 2015 said during the past months UCC had discussed hiring armed security. <blockquote>“We talked about that over the last year because we were concerned about safety on campus”</blockquote> <blockquote>“The campus was split 50-50. We thought we were a very safe campus, and having armed security officers on campus might change the culture.”<ref>http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/424976/god-bless-martyrs-roseburg-oregon-and-three-other-thoughts-terrible-day-david-french</ref></blockquote>
