Emergency Procedures:
Southern Illinois University Carbondale is committed to providing a safe and healthy
environment for study and work. Because some health and safety circumstances are
beyond our control, we ask that you become familiar with the SIUC Emergency
Response Plan and Building Emergency Response Team (BERT) program.
Emergency response information is available on posters in buildings on campus,
available on the BERT'S website at www.bert.siu.edu, Department of Public Safety's
website www.d~s.siu.edu( disaster drop down) and in the Emergency Response
Guidelines pamphlet. Know how to respond to each type of emergency.
Instructors will provide guidance and direction to students in the classroom in the
event of an emergency affecting your location. It is important that you follow these
instructions and stay with your instructor during an evacuation or sheltering
emergency. The Building Emergency Response Team will provide assistance to your
instructor in evacuating the building or sheltering within the facility.
