Fire Emergencies

In case of fire, it is of utmost importance that the area involved be evacuated as quickly and safely as possible. Building evacuation instructions, indicating the nearest exits, etc., are posted in each classroom and all exits are clearly marked. Faculty members will instruct students in their classes, at the beginning of each semester, of proper fire procedures and evacuation routes. All students should be familiar with these procedures.

At no time should a fire alarm be presumed to be a false alarm or drill. To ensure safety, all persons should leave the building in the event of the sounding of a fire alarm. No one should return to the building until an “all clear” is given by a Public Safety and Security Officer. 

Parking motorcycles, mopeds and bicycles -

• Because of fire and safety codes, no two-wheel, gasoline-powered vehicles (moped, motorcycle), may not be brought into ANY building interior or be parked under any building overhang. 

• Bicycles should be left securely affixed to bicycle racks and not brought into buildings where they will block exits or hallways.
