Evacuation

Building Evacuation
  • All building evacuations will occur when a fire alarm sounds and/or upon notification by a Crisis Team designee.
  • When an alarm is activated or evacuation instructions are received, leave the building by the nearest exit and alert others to do the same.
  • Exit in an orderly fashion.
  • ASSIST THE HANDICAPPED IN EXITING THE BUILDING.
  • DO NOT USE THE ELEVATORS.
  • Once outside the building, proceed to a clear area that is at least 500 feet away from the affected building or area.
  • Keep streets, fire lanes, hydrant areas and walkways clear for emergency vehicles and personnel.
  • DO NOT return to an evacuated building unless told to do so by an authorized official.

Campus Evacuation

  • Evacuation of all or part of the campus grounds will be announced by the Crisis Response Team designee.
  • All persons are to immediately vacate the area of the campus in question and relocate to another part of the campus or vacate the campus as instructed.
