HURRICANE SEASON IS HERE!
With hurricane season here, it is important to review your
72-Hour Emergency Campus and Travel Preparedness Kit. This tool
gives you a listing of essential supplies, tailored to meet the
basic survival needs for a period of 72-hours during or after a
disaster. The kit will also help prepare you, your coworkers and
family for an emergency lasting up to 72 hours. Take just a few
minutes to review the list and be prepared!
The 72-Hour Emergency Campus and Travel Preparedness Kit can be
viewed
here.
Remember these 3 steps:
Step 1
Have a Plan
Know whether you live in an evacuation zone or not. If so, make
plans to evacuate. Know where you will go and how to get there.
If you do not live in an evacuation zone, plan to shelter from
the storm.

Step 2
Build an Emergency Kit
Prepare enough supplies for 3 to 7 days. Include non-perishable
food, drinking water, first aid kit and essential toiletries.
Don�t forget medications, cash, flashlight with extra batteries
and a weather radio. For a complete list, see
