Fire Evacuation Drills Starting Soon

By Charlie Sherman, August 22, 2022

Environmental Health and Safety personnel will be conducting fire evacuation exercises for all campus buildings.

As required by the New York State Fire Code, Ithaca College Environmental Health and Safety personnel will be conducting fire evacuation exercises for both residential and academic buildings in the coming two weeks.  As is always the case, you are required to exit the building in a safe and expedient manner any time the fire alarm system is activated, gather at the buildings designated assembly location, and await word from Public Safety officers or the fire department before re-entering the building.

If faculty are aware of a specific date or time that would be a significant conflict, (exam, lab, etc.) please advise our office and we will attempt to avoid the time.  Requests or concerns should be directed to Charlie Sherman at csherman1@ithaca.edu.

If during the drill you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask the EH&S staff conducting the drill.  Working together, we maintain a commitment of providing a safe environment for our college community.  Thank you!!
