Scope

This policy applies to all university buildings or portions of buildings used for gatherings of 300 or more persons for such activities as entertainment, dining, amusement, lectures, seminars, etc. (e.g., Bender Arena, Mary Graydon Center dining facilities, Ward Circle Building, Greenberg Theater). These are the minimum criteria for emergency evacuation planning and fire prevention practices to be implemented by university departments responsible for activities at such locations.

Emergency Planning

The employees or attendants at places of assembly should be trained in the duties they are to perform in case of fire, panic, or other emergency, to ensure the orderly exit of those assembled.聽

Attendants should know the location of fire exits and portable fire extinguishers. Attendants should know how to use fire extinguishers. An announcement should be made at the beginning of the event, such as:

"ATTENTION: Emergency exit doors are located at the north and south ends of the arena floor. Look for the red exit signs. In the event of an emergency, please exit in a calm and orderly fashion and follow the directions of university officials. Thank you."

If evacuation is necessary, another announcement should be made repeating initial instructions. If possible, it is preferable that the fire alarms in the assembly area not be suddenly sounded as this may cause panic.

NOTE: In some buildings, the fire alarms will automatically activate. In this situation, consideration should be given to making an announcement concerning this possibility before the event.

Refer to the university鈥檚 Emergency Management Procedures, 鈥淒epartment Evacuation Plans鈥� for evacuation sites on campus.
