Combating the Threat of Domestic Terrorism in the 21st Century

10:00AM - 03:30PM Tenley Campus - Warren NT01 Ceremonial Classroom

The security threats facing the United States in the post-9/11 era has drastically shifted in recent years. The rise in domestic acts of terrorism, largely committed by lone-wolf actors and right-wing extremists, has surged and poses new challenges to preventing events like the El Paso and Dayton mass shootings. This symposium seeks to assess today's threats and explore ways to bridge the gap between government, business, and nonprofit organizations to help better equip the nation in combating domestic terrorism.
