Media Response 

• Providing timely, honest and accurate information during an emergency is one of the College's highest priorities.  Every effort is made to give members of the media credible information as quickly as possible.
   
• In some cases, it may be necessary to inform members of the College community or family members of certain news before information can be made available to the media or the general public.
   
• During an emergency, information is communicated by the Office of Marketing and Communications or other appropriate College officials to the media through e-mail, briefings and news conferences. When appropriate, a College administrator may be made available for interviews.
   
• The College has an emergency response plan.  For a major emergency, an incident command post is established and a public information officer is designated. If the incident is large or ongoing, an Emergency Operations Center may also be established.
   
• As in all emergencies, please do not cross police safety tape, block traffic lanes, or otherwise interfere with first responders.
