The Emergency Plan is coordinated by the University Safety Office.

If a Level 2 emergency is declared, all or part of the campus may need to be evacuated. In some situations it may be necessary and/or the university may be ordered to move residents to sheltered areas (for example, an approaching severe storm or fire in a residence hall).

If one or more buildings must be evacuated, temporary shelter can be obtained at the following on-campus buildings:

- Folger catering area
- Hadley Union Building
- Memorial Field House
- Foster Dining Hall (upstairs)
- Eberly Auditorium
- Pratt Auditorium
- Zink Hall

Other campus or off-campus buildings may be designated as temporary shelters, depending on the emergency.

• Remain calm.
• Listen for campus announcements as to which shelter to move to.
• Do not bring personal items (luggage, computers, etc.) to the shelter.
• Move from your building to the designated temporary shelter.
• Stay there until conditions change and you are told it is safe to return to your building.
• The university will provide food, utilities, medical care and basic communication while you are at the temporary shelter.

Punxsutawney Regional Campus may need to use one of the local high schools as a temporary shelter. Listen for campus announcements as to which shelter to move to.
