Part 1 Identify

 The first assignment is to identify a current administrative level issue or challenge facing public safety administration. It is expected that you will identify an issue, indicate how the issue surfaced, what history is connected to the issue, and a brief statement on how the issue should be analyzed. Parallel issues in other disciplines should be noted. Present your issue in a 2- to 4-page paper (no abstract required, but must include title and reference pages). 

Public Safety Discussion 1
