Code BlueEmergency Call Boxes

The College has installed several Code Blue emergency call boxes on the campus parking lots. Large signs and blue and red lights mark the locations of the emergency boxes. These emergency call boxes place a call to an emergency phone at the Information Center where security personnel are immediately dispatched. As an additional safeguard, each call box is equipped with a strobe light that will flash when a message is transmitted. This will enable the responding college personnel to better locate the box from which the call has been placed. If assistance is required in the event of an emergency, go to the nearest call box and follow the instructions printed on the box. A Campus Safety and Security officer or a campus administrator will provide assistance. The emergency call boxes are operational during campus operating hours.

Emergency Notification System · e2Campus

The college has implemented a new notification system, e2Campus, that enables time-sensitive information to be sent to the entire campus community instantly and simultaneously to all registered mobile phones, BlackBerrys, wireless PDAs, pages, and e-mail addresses. These messages will also be posted on the College's website. Students, faculty and staff are encouraged to register for this service.

Crisis Management

In the event of a violent, catastrophic incident, the following codes and instructions will be used.

Code Blue

Quiet, controlled evacuation from areas designated safe by responding emergency personnel.

It is now safe. Regular activities may resume.

Following these instructions and listening to your instructor in the event of major crisis will keep you and those around you as safe as possible.

Fire/Evacuation Procedures

In case of fire, pull the nearest fire alarm if not already sounded, and exit the building from the nearest designated exit in an orderly manner and continue at least 200 feet from the building. Do not use the elevator. All persons must use stairways. If unable to exit the building, the stairwells may be used as temporary shelter until help arrives.
