The Crisis Management Team is responsible for developing a comprehensive plan for dealing with the human side of any crisis that may occur on campus.  The team will develop a systematic approach for any emergency situation that involves students and/or faculty/staff that are involved with students.

In order to provide a safe campus environment, this committee will develop, maintain and refine: a multi-disciplinary crisis response team, educate university members regarding crisis prevention, provide a well-defined communication system in the event of a campus crisis and to provide a common framework for dealing with crisis situations in order to return the campus to its pre-crisis level of functioning as soon as possible.
