In the event that a person is seen on College property with a gun or is actively firing a weapon, the following action plan is recommended:

• If possible, do not leave the room you are in, and lock/barricade the door. (Use furniture or anything you can push.)
• Don’t stay in an open hallway or area. If you are caught in an open area, seek the closest available shelter.
• Lock windows, and close blinds.
• Turn all lights and audio equipment off.
• Turn cell phones and pagers to silent mode.
• Try to stay calm, and be as quiet as possible.
• If communication is available, call 911 and then College Security Services.
• Do not sound the fire alarm. A fire alarm would signal the occupants in the other rooms to evacuate the building, and thus, place them in potential harm as they attempt to exit.
• Protect yourself with any available barriers such as concrete walls, desks or tables.

Note: The previous information cannot cover every possible situation that might occur. If there is gunfire or explosives discharged, you should take cover immediately. After the disturbance, seek emergency treatment if necessary.
