All building evacuations will occur when a fire alarm sounds or upon notification by Campus Police, Building Supervisor (Residence Hall Coordinators or Assistants) or their designates.

IN ADVANCE - EACH STAFF MEMBER SHOULD:

Recognize the sound of the evacuation alarm and know at least two ways out of building from your regular workspace.

BUILDING EVACUATION

When the building alarm is activated, leave by the nearest clear exit and alert others. Assist those with disabilities in exiting the building. Do not use elevators in cases of fire and/or earthquakes. Once outside proceed to a clear area that is at least 500 feet away from the affected building. Keep streets, fire lanes, hydrant areas and walkways clear for emergency vehicles and personnel. Know your assembly point.
Do not return to an evacuated building unless told to do so by a University Official.

Important:
After any evacuation report to your pre-designated assembly point. Stay there until an accurate head count is taken. The building manager (Residence Hall Coordinator, Assistant RA) will take attendance and assist in counting for all occupants.

Remain Calm.

 
CAMPUS EVACUATION
