The administration of the college will respond to each bomb threat using one of the responses listed in the policy. The bomb threat procedure is a guideline to be used by college administration in handling bomb threats. Procedures defined in the policy provide for the safety of occupants and attempts to minimize disruption of activities. All communication with the press will be channelled through Public Relations. All bomb searches will be conducted on a volunteer basis using Support Staff, Administration and Faculty.
Suspicious objects are to be left untouched for Police inspection and handling.
City Police will be contacted immediately. The Fire Department will be informed of the situation and will be asked to respond as is appropriate. See attached response guide. The Response Team will advise key staff of the situation, i.e., Deans, Human Resource Director, Day Care, Public Relations, and Student Services. Should the Campus be evacuated it will be manned continuously by Security or member of the Response Team, except in cases on imminent danger.
