At the beginning of every school year, the Residential Life staff conducts an emergency drill to familiarize residents with evacuation locations and procedures. This drill also includes establishment of alternative dining locations that would be used in the event of an emergency.

Are you ready for an emergency?

Residents should review "A Guide to Citizen Preparedness" available from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). This guide provides specific, clearly written steps in preparing for a variety of unexpected situations.

Be prepared!

  • Have a personal disaster supply kit with food, water, and supplies to last at least three days.
  • Choose a friend or family member outside the area as a point of contact.
  • Become involved in community activities that include first aid and CPR training.
