To
enable Wesleyan community members to report criminal actions or
emergencies as quickly as possible, the campus is dotted with
emergency police and fire radio boxes, which, when activated,
summon assistance. To
activate a police/fire emergency alarm box:
-
Lift
the white protective cover.
-
Depress
the button for police and/or fire department, depending on the
emergency.
-
You
will hear no sound but the red light will be activated.
Try to stay close to the box so that the responders can assist
you as they arrive.
To
activate a blue-light phone
to call Public Safety in an emergency:
-
Push
red button -- the phone will dial Public Safety.
-
A
red light will indicate the phone is activated.
Residence-hall
telephones, pay telephones, elevator telephones, and University
extensions, including exterior blue-light phones, or direct lines
to Public Safety also are available. The campus has many
University telephones located in common areas inside buildings or
outside. Emergency telephone numbers, which are displayed on
Public Safety patrol vehicles and on decals available from the
Office of Public Safety, are:
Public Safety Emergencies
685-3333; Middletown Police Department, Fire Department, or
medical emergencies 9-911.
In addition, Public
Safety provides emergency telephone number posters to residence
staff for display in living units and to academic and
administrative departments for their offices. Public Safety
emergency and/or non-emergency numbers appear in the following
publications: Faculty/Staff Directory, Student Directory,
Handbook for Wesleyan Parents, Student Handbook [www.wesleyan.edu/studenthandbook],
and publications distributed by the Wesleyan Student Assembly. |
