N2  - The incidence of aggression and violence in the schools is approaching epidemic proportions. Unfortunately, few teacher education programs have initiated coursework designed to equip public school personnel to face the mounting challenge of student aggression. First, we examine briefly the origin and nature of student aggression. Then, drawing upon a review of the accumulated literature, we offer a series of recommendations to refocus the content of teacher education programs. We also discuss redefining the boundaries of professional development to engage all school personnel to combat aggression. Lastly, we argue for strengthening university and public school collaboration to curb the rising tide of student aggression and violence.<p />
