Fire: 疏散程序, 装配点, and Policies

The University takes a number of precautions to prevent fire in our residential facilities.

疏散程序

Upon hearing a fire alarm or observing smoke or fire, the following procedures must be observed by each resident:

  • Check your door before opening it. If your door or doorknob is hot, do not open your door. 呼叫 6911 to inform the dispatcher of your situation. Go to the window to yell for help. Hang an article of clothing out the window to gain attention.
  • If your doorknob is not hot, open your door cautiously, exit the room. Close your room door, and leave it unlocked. 留下你的东西.
  • If there is smoke, stay low to the floor and use a wet cloth over your face. Stay low to the floor where there is more oxygen.
  • Proceed to the nearest exit quickly without running. Always uses stairs instead of an elevator.
  • Clear the building by at least 50 feet and assemble in your posted assembly location.

Discovering a Fire - Actions to Take

如果你发现了火灾, pull the fire alarm and warn other residents by knocking on doors and shouting as you leave the building. Notify the resident assistant, head resident or residential coordinator if possible.

Attempt to extinguish the fire 只有 if it is very small and you know how to do it safely. If the extinguisher does not put out the fire within a minute, leave immediately.

呼叫 campus security at ext. 6911(校外), call 471-6911) from a safe location, and provide them with as much information as possible.
