Although the crime rate in New York City has been declining over the years, safety among CCIP exchange visitors is definitely a priority. Soon after session B students started their internships, representatives from the New York Police Department gave students a brief but informative talk on safety, equipping them with necessary safety knowledge.
During the talk, experienced policemen role-played some typical situations, vividly demonstrating how to react to emergencies. The talk also illustrated how students can reduce potentially being targeted and what to look for while carrying valuables. In the Q&A session, representatives patiently answered questions raised by students.
"I've been here for nearly four weeks. I was really alert in the first week but gradually became less vigilant. Thanks to those representatives, the talk reminded me about the potential danger I'm exposed to," commented Alice, a female student from the Chinese University of Hong Kong.
