Â鶹ӰԺ State’s Department of Public Safety Will Initiate Fire/Emergency Evacuation Drills on Sept. 11

On Wednesday, Sept. 11, at 11 a.m., Â鶹ӰԺ's Department of Public Safety will test the emergency notification system on the Â鶹ӰԺ Campus.


The purpose of this annual exercise is to familiarize students and employees with building evacuations and precautions to be taken in event of a fire or any other type of emergency.

No actual evacuation will take place during this exercise. Instead, classroom instructors and unit supervisors are asked to review the guidelines with their respective students and employees. As always, listen to the message and follow the instructions given.

Additional information on building evacuation and fire guidelines are available in the emergency guide area of the Â鶹ӰԺ State website atwww.kent.edu/publicsafety/eguide_fire.cfm.


At the end of the exercise, if you experienced any problems understanding or hearing the message, please email or call Bill Buckbee, assistant director of Emergency and Special Services at the Â鶹ӰԺ State Police Department, at wbuckbee@kent.edu or 330-672-1034.
