15Annual Security Reportstudent contact data in its Blackboard Connect EmergencyNotification System at the start of each term.Evacuating CampusIn the event of a fire alarm activation, an actual fire, a gas leak,or circumstances that require a building to be evacuated,everyone in the affected building must evacuate to a safe areaand wait for the building to be cleared. Affected persons areto wait in an assembly area until the building is declared safeto reoccupy. Unaffected areas of campus will continue tooperate normally.In the event of a campus-wide evacuation, all buildings will beevacuated in the same orderly manner as would be used ifonly one building was being evacuated. The increasedvolume of people leaving campus all at once however, willhave a significant negative impact on traffic conditions aroundcampus. Unlike a school with on-campus housing wheremany students walk or ride bikes to class, most Mt. SACstudents drive here and park in one of the student lots. Inaddition, most faculty and staff members drive to campus andpark in one of the staff lots. As a result, the parking lots areusually filled to capacity throughout the day. Emptying everyparking lot at the same time represents a significant challengeand it will take much longer to leave campus in your car thanit normally does.Remember to put your safety first. If you need to get awayfrom campus due to an active shooter, a hazardous materialspill, a fire, or any other significant emergency that is animmediate threat to your safety, leave your car behind andwalk away from the danger. Do not go to your car and attemptto drive away because you will be stuck in traffic. If you can,walk in a safe direction away from campus. You can comeback at a later time, when the campus is safe, to retrieve yourvehicle. If you do attempt to leave campus in your vehicle beprepared for it to take much longer than it normally does.
