Shelter in Place (SIP) is a protective action to stay inside a building to avoid external hazards such as severe weather, hostile intruder, or a hazardous material release. Shelter In Place is implemented to protect the safety and welfare of our students and staff. When Shelter In Place is warranted, you will be appropriately advised by police, fire, safety or university officials via emergency notification system, university web site, local radio and television stations, or other appropriate means.
General Steps to Shelter in Place
Note: Just like fire drills, shelter in place drills will be performed.
