Emergency Evacuation: During emergencies, all individuals should proceed to their designated assembly areas and remain there until the all-clear signal is given. Under no circumstances are students to go to their automobiles or attempt to remove them from the parking lot. All traffic lanes must be clear for emergency vehicles and traffic. The primary and secondary routes for emergency evacuation in case of fire or bomb threat are posted in each department. Students should become familiar with exit routes during student orientation.

Fire drills will be held periodically to familiarize students with the fire alarm system and evacuation routes. Fire drills will be indicated by a non-interrupted blast of the fire alarm. When the fire alarm is sounded, all students, faculty, and staff must exit the building immediately by their primary means of egress. If the primary route is blocked by fire or explosion, the secondary egress route should be used. Students will be signaled to return to class by reactivating the fire alarm.
