Fire Safety
This area is responsible for
the day to day fire safety of all four campuses. This area covers
all fire safety inspections for Dormitories, Fraternities and Sororities
plus the Administrative, Academic and Service buildings on all campuses.

| Emergency Lighting / Battery Backup Systems: | All emergency lighting / battery backup systems are tested every 30 days, with an annual 90 minute test done by the University. |
| Emergency Generator Systems: | All emergency generator systems are tested weekly by the University or by automatic systems. |
