But our safety during those times depends primarily on our level of preparation. That's why Eastern Kentucky University, through its Emergency Operations Plan, has established a series of procedures to manage various emergency situations and minimize the negative impact on people, facilities and other campus resources The Division of Public Safety and the EKU Safety Services Office, in cooperation with the Student Gov- ^ ernment Association, Division of Public Relations and Marketing, and The Eastern Progress, have prepared and distributed this guide to help the University Community deal with various emergency situations. Please review this information carefully and familiarize yourself with the procedures outlined for each emergency situation. If you have questions, or if you wish to schedule a presentation to your group by a safety officer, please call the Division of Public Safety at 622-2821. Be prepared, and be safe! Joanne K.
