We also hear from senior Caleb Pierce, a BCSP scholarship recipient, who shares why he switched from aerospace engineering to fire protection and safety—and why this tight-knit, hands-on field has him excited for the future.

In this episode of Safety on Location, we head to Oklahoma State University for a front-row seat to safety education in action. Join us as we catch up with Leslie Stockel—former BCSP Board President and OSU associate professor—and explore one of the nation’s most hands-on safety programs. Think fire tornadoes, dust explosions, sprinkler demos, and students learning safety by doing, not just reading about it.

BCSP CEO Christy Uden is taking a walk on the wild side in this episode of Safety on Location! When it comes to zoo safety, most of us probably imagine daring animal rescues and keeping habitats secure, but often times the biggest challenge isn’t just the lions and tigers—it’s the two-legged creatures roaming the grounds! Enter Domini Montgomery, the leader of the Saint Louis Zoo’s safety pack. As the Director of Safety and Risk Management, she takes us on a safari, revealing how her team of just two works to keep the animals, the staff, and thousands of daily guests protected. Join Christy and Domini as they roam the zoo grounds, uncover the evolution of the zoo’s safety efforts, and explore what it takes to create a safe and thriving ecosystem for all creatures!
