Emergencies

Campus Safety

In case of police or medical emergencies, call Campus Safety from any campus telephone by dialing 4-4911. For non-emergency events such as being locked out of your room or plumbing problems, please call the At Your Service Desk.

Fire Safety

If a fire alarm sounds, please look for the EXIT signs and evacuate the building immediately. If you see a fire or smoke, pull the nearest fire alarm and leave the building via the closest fire escape. For your safety and others, please do not re-enter the building again until you have been cleared to do so. Please do not congregate in the lobby as it may hinder fire and emergency personnel from accessing the appropriate areas.
