Before a fire occurs:

2. Know the location of the fire alarm pull box nearest your area.
3. Know the location of fire extinguishers in your area.
4. Know how to use a fire extinguisher.

Upon discovery of a fire:

1. Pull fire alarm and give verbal warning.
2. Call Campus Police at 5-3668, they will dispatch Fire Department. Or dial 911.
3. Follow evacuation procedures in this pamphlet.
4. Close doors to contain fire and smoke.
5. If it is safe to do so, and you have been properly trained, you may attempt to extinguish the fire.

If your clothes catch fire drop to the floor and roll to smother the flame, or use a blanket, rug or heavy coat.
