我们的口头禅是“去健身房". 原因如下:

  • The Gym is a prominent gathering point. If there's time to leave campus and the route is clear, this is a good place to coordinate everyone.
  • The Gym is a designated safe zone. If it's safest to stay, the gym has proven to be a good shelter.
  • The Fire Department will advise us. They will know if the route and timing support going or staying.
  • If time is short you’re safer here. Leaving late can be dangerous. Lives have been lost elsewhere fleeing fires too late.

Because the disaster planning experts often say, "前72个由你决定", our target is to provide the basics (life-sustaining shelter, 营养, 水合作用, and medical care) for up to 1,200 people for up to three days. Most of the required supplies are already in place, yet we constantly increase our inventory and expand our training.

  • 供应 包括住所,补水 & 营养、卫生 & hygiene, basic medical, communications, lighting and office material. 
  • 计划 are based upon the national standard Incident Command System, and include key elements of shelter mobilization and management as practiced by the American Red Cross.

While we have an idyllic setting and a terrific cadre of high quality students, we don't believe that "It can't happen here." We maintain a very good finger on the pulse of our student body, but we still want to be poised to guard our students' safety as much as possible. To that end, our preparations include the following: 

  • 建立一个 协调审查 plan so that our 学生生活, 居住生活, 校园生活, Health Center and Counseling Center (along with our College Counsel) collaborate to identify and support students who may need extra encouragement and guidance 
  • Established a Area Response Team (ART) to promptly take advantage of available security in all major buildings
  • Invested in the Regroup Notification System for rapid distribution of 警告消息
  • Offer students ready access to the 培训视频 题为“CSU Active Shooter Safety Training", an excellent primer on how to respond if the unthinkable occurs 
  • Maintain ongoing awareness of  发展的建议 for how to cope with the shooter phenomena, adapting our plans accordingly.

Watch the "CSU Active Shooter Safety Training" video below for information on how to respond if the unthinkable occurs.

The media attention to Covid-19 has raised concerns about how communities can work together to minimize its impacts. Westmont's Student Health Center has taken the lead in coming up with recommendations to help the college respond appropriately.

  • 个人卫生是关键. It is the single most important factor in preventing infection. Everyone should wash hands often, and use the sanitizers found in public gathering places all over campus. 
  • 冷 & 流感工具包 is recommended for all students to assemble/purchase and keep in their dorm room.
  • 接种疫苗 will be offered at the Student Health Center when available from suppliers. Details can be found at the link just below here.
  • 社会距离 is the new byword for having people keep their bugs to themselves. When feasible for students to be cared for by family at 首页, that's preferable. When there's no where else to go, students should remain in their room until 24 hours have passed with no fever (and no fever-reducing medication). The 居住生活 staff will assist in coordinating meals.

One of our five key mission aims is that our students become global citizens. To encounter and process one's experience of other cultures is a vital part of achieving that aim. Hundreds of students are outside the US every year. Among the ways we guard their safety are these:

  • 预行程 取向 programs for students and faculty, dealing with safety, cross-cultural sensitivity, and so on 
  • 特殊的 保险 policies designed for foreign travel exposure
  • Advance arrangements for assistance with medical or political 疏散
  • 期望管理 through use of participation agreements, travel manuals, health care forms
  • 一个八党 顾问网络 to assist with whatever situation may arise (international assistance provider; security consultant; crisis management team; and others)

Our 紧急行动计划 references the essentials of 业务连续性计划 (to enable swift post-incident recovery). 我们不断 加强我们的准备 for a wide range of eventualities, including: 

  • 建筑火灾 
  • 建筑事故 
  • 洪水 
  • 其他威胁 
  • 有害物质/公用事业事件 
  • Death or major injury on campus 
  • Medical / psychological situations 
  • 炸弹威胁

The descriptions above relate primarily to the Montecito campus. 韦斯特蒙特市中心和 Westmont in San Francisco Program facilities participate in regular emergency response training and education, and are equipped with supply inventories designed for their populations.
