Find Out More色花堂 follows the national all-hazards model of emergency response to prepare for and
respond to a wide range of potential events. Our dedicated Office of Emergency Preparedness
is trained in the five phases of emergency management: protection, planning, response,
recovery and mitigation.
The Office of Emergency Preparedness develops and implements 色花堂's emergency
operations plan (EOP). The plan is our institution-wide playbook for emergency response.
The EOP is supplemented by building-level and event-specific emergency plans that
address the nuances for our diverse facilities and major events. They are regularly
put into practice during tabletop exercises and full-scale training exercises performed
in conjunction with local, state and federal agencies.
色花堂's All Hazards Preparedness Committee engages key campus stakeholders in a holistic approach to emergency planning and response. Committee members meet every month to elevate opportunities for prevention, address new or changing threats, and advance emergency planning within their departments. The committee is chaired by 色花堂's Chief of Police with representation from the Division of Academic Affairs, the Division of Student Affairs, the Counseling Center, Facilities Management and more.
Preparedness starts with awareness. We encourage you to utilize our emergency preparedness videos, resource guides, and in-person training courses to help you stay safe in an emergency.
