Emergency Preparedness & Response

Preparation is the responsibility of every member of the community. Individuals should prepare with supplies, a plan to stay in touch, and information about what to do in an emergency, and what's happening during a disaster. Departments should also prepare with their own emergency plans, to address their own particular emergency response needs and to augment the university's Crisis Management Plan.

Visit Ready America for lists of recommended items to include in your Basic Emergency Supply Kit.

Do you know how you'd reach loved ones if telephones were knocked out by a natural disaster? Pandemic Flu Planning and Domestic Preparedness both have tips to help departments and individuals plan for disasters. Announcements on Current Events and Weather Emergencies can be found on this site. Also look for announcements on InfoScreens located in some building lobbies throughout the campuses.
