  2. MLC Severe Weather • WATCH: This announcement means that conditions in the area are favorable for a inclement weather. • Once a watch has been issued the security staff will place signage on the first and second floor to let patrons know that we are under a watch.

  3. MLC Severe Weather • Warning: This announcement means that there is an imminent threat and shelter should be taken immediately. • Once a warning has been issued the security staff will make a public address announcement directing patrons to seek shelter in one of the designated shelter areas of the Miller Learning Center.

  4. MLC Severe Weather • The shelter areas are post on the emergency clip boards at each service location. • NOTE: During this time there are only two options for patrons in the building • A) Seek shelter in an assigned area • B) To leave the Miller Learning Center and Exit all covered areas including the Colonnade • These are there only two options.

  5. MLC Severe Weather • Shelter areas • North West emergency stair • Card swipe stair on any floor • Mechanical hallway next to room 102 • First floor classrooms • Loading dock hallway • CTL offices • Note the CTL office is a last resort, to place people if the other places are completely filled

  6. MLC Severe Weather • What can you expect • The areas that you will aid in clearing are the same as in the event of a fire system activation • These areas are located on the emergency clipboards at all service points. • Simple notify patrons if someone refuses to leave call for security. • Once everyone is in a shelter area staff should meet in front of the 1st floor west restrooms, and seek shelter from there.

  8. MLC Severe Weather • Once you reach the shelter areas • Expect to be there for 30 plus minutes • The official “all clear” comes from public safety and at times may take a few minutes. • Expect the 1st floor to be very noisy, so you will need to listen carefully for the “all clear” to be issued.

  9. MLC Severe Weather • Once an “all clear” has been issued wait on instructions. • There will need to be a quick check by security to ensure that the building is still Safe. • If the building has major damage you will be direct toward other campus locations. • Further info on severe weather at: http://www.srh.weather.gov/ffc/html/swaw04.shtml
