There is no solution honestly. Want to arm the students? Not so hot an idea with some of their young and untrained minds. Arm the faculty? Another tricky situation depending on the person. I won't even get into the alcohol and drug consumption in college. Put more cameras up, but that's not going to be a deterrent being it's passive not active. Hire more campus police. Now that might be something that works, but to some students who just won't get "it", it's an infringement on them personally, and could cost the school a program or two.
Hire more cops, drop the chess, math, and male synronized swimming teams. Save lives.

More police presence on campus? You're right no real solution to put a stop to this.

just allow them to defend oneself. It is like the old days in China, people advice others not to learn Kong Fu, because you will more likely to die in a fight. LOL just kidding!! See the same concept yet? I come to a break through on Guns, because of my martial art understanding. They are the same, but untrained people don't mean that they can't use their hand to punch ... right?
I feel like they're isolated incidents for the most part, but due to the vast media coverage of the shooters, it causes the copycat effect. These unstable lunatics with weapons feel like that is their claim to fame. Failing to realize they're are going to meet their inevitable demise.
The problem (again my thoughts) is the deterioration of the family.....sitting down together to have a family dinner (without texting), talking to one another - I know its a foreign concept, but looking at someone eyeball to eyeball instead of emgicon to emogicon.....the detachment from reality in what we call todays family circle will see an even greater increase in this sort of isolated pockets of violence with the family and neighbors all saying "he was a good boy...." well, good boy hell, he had no direction and it starts with the breakdown at the family!
