Reminder: Evacuation Exercises This Week

September 3, 2012

The college will conduct building evacuation exercises during the week of September 4– 7 at our Northwest campus and the Centers. These evacuation exercises are required by the Clery Act for all institutes of higher education.In order to provide a more effective test of our evacuation procedures, the College does not divulge which buildings will be evacuated nor at what times of day.The fire alarms will sound in the targeted buildings five minutes before the end of class. Faculty and students MUST vacate the building during this exercise.

Thanks for your understanding about the importance of complying with this Federal mandate.

Extensive information regarding emergency response mechanisms can be found at the College's Risk Management Website, located at https://www.sfcollege.edu/safety/, which includes links to SF's Safety Manual, an Emergency Procedures Booklet and videos on Emergency Procedures and Emergency Notification. In addition, the College's Police Department web site, located at https://www.sfcollege.edu/pd/, contains information and links regarding safety tips and procedures, the emergency notification system and the College's Clery Annual Security Report.
