Mission: The American School of Classical Studies at Athens advances knowledge of Greece in all periods, as well as other areas of the classical world, by training young scholars, sponsoring and promoting archaeological fieldwork, providing resources for scholarly work, and disseminating research. The ASCSA is also charged by the Hellenic Ministry of Culture and Sports with primary responsibility for all American archaeological research, and seeks to support the investigation, preservation, and presentation of Greece’s cultural heritage. Philosophy: The study of Greece from antiquity to the present day is critical for understanding the civilizations, history and culture of the Mediterranean, Europe, and Western Asia. The ASCSA supports a multidisciplinary approach to Hellenic studies, encompassing the fields of archaeology, anthropology, the archaeological sciences, topography, architecture, epigraphy, numismatics, history, art, language, literature, philosophy, religion, and cultural studies. As an institution in Greece sponsored by a consortium of institutions of higher education in North America, the ASCSA makes its resources available to qualified scholars, promotes the highest standards of research and archaeological fieldwork, and shares the results of its work.

Plan the routes you will take to reach these exits in the event of an emergency. • When to Evacuate o At the sound of a fire alarm (two pitch continuous sound) by following relevant procedures described below. o At the sound of the evacuation alarm (single pitch intermittent sound) evacuate immediately. o When an obvious life-threatening emergency exists. o At the direction of the School’s Personnel or external Emergency Personnel. ii • Evacuation Procedures and Routes o Alert others around you. o If it is safe to do so, the area should be secured by turning off electrical equipment and safeguarding vital information and valuables. o Walk, do not run, to your assigned or alternate emergency exit. o Do not use elevators. o Assist people with disabilities. o Do not push or crowd. o Keep noise/talking to a minimum, so that you can hear emergency instructions. o Use the handrails in the stairwells and stay to the right. o Proceed outside to the assembly area, which is at the northwest corner of the School grounds by the secondary gate of Souidias street next to the British School. o If you are injured or trapped, remain where you are so that rescue can be attempted by Emergency Personnel. o Re-enter the building only once the all-clear is given. • Stay Together It is important that all staff, members and visitors stay together during an evacuation. This will help the Emergency Response Personnel assess whether all persons have been safely evacuated. Fire Please familiarize yourself with the location of fire exits and fire extinguishers in your area. For certain exits a key is locked in a break glass box. Upon discovering a fire: • Activate the break-glass fire alarm button and notify the School. • Close doors to isolate the fire. Do not use elevators. • If you are unable to contact the ASCSA guardhouse or staff, call 199 • If the fire is small, you may wish to use a fire extinguisher if you are trained to do so. You should know where the nearest portable fire extinguishers are to your work area. • Maintain a clear escape path by placing yourself between the fire and an exit. • Assist any person in immediate danger, but only if safe to do so. iii • Alert other people in the immediate area. • Evacuate to the assembly area, which is at the northwest corner of the School grounds by the secondary gate of Souidias street next to the British School. Earthquake During an Earthquake Inside the Building: • DUCK - When you feel an earthquake, duck under a sturdy desk or table. Stay away from windows, bookcases, file cabinets, tall furniture, heavy mirrors or paintings, and other objects that could fall. Watch out for falling plaster, lighting fixtures, ceiling tiles or glass. • COVER - Stay under cover until the shaking stops. If no desk or table is available, seek cover against an interior wall and protect your head and neck with your arms. • HOLD - Hold onto the desk or table. If it moves, move with it. Hold your position until the ground stops shaking and it is safe to move. • Do not rush outdoors, since most injuries occur as people are leaving buildings from falling glass, plaster, bricks, debris, and electrical lines. Stay put! • Do not attempt to restrain falling objects unless your life is endangered by them. • Wait until the shaking stops, then leave the building. Move away from overhangs, power lines and trees, and stay in the open away from all structures. • Lighting systems may fail within seconds after the quake. Visually identify potentially dangerous articles and recall the location of a flashlight and transistor radio. However, keep your body protected at all times during the shaking. Outside the Building: • Move away from trees, signs, buildings, electrical poles and wires. • Protect your head with your arms from falling bricks, glass, plaster, and other debris. iv • Move away from fire and smoke and proceed to the assembly area if safe. After an Earthquake • Remain calm. Take whatever actions are necessary to prevent injuries and further damage. Do not panic and do all that is possible to calm others. • Remember, aftershocks may occur at any moment with nearly the same force as the original quake. Be prepared. • Move cautiously and observe your surroundings for hazardous situations. • Check yourself and people around you for injuries. Do not attempt to move seriously injured people unless they are in immediate danger of further injury. Provide first aid where necessary. • Do not use your telephone except for genuine emergency calls. Seek help by phone (if working and you have need for emergency aid), or by sending an able-bodied person. Expect a long delay if serious quake has occurred. • Elevators can be unpredictable and dangerous after a quake. Never use elevators until you have been assured by School personnel that they are safe. • If you detect gas or any foreign odors, do not use any matches or candles. Open windows, leave the building immediately, and report to staff. Bomb Threat What to do if you receive a telephoned bomb threat • Stay calm and keep your voice calm. Once it becomes clear that you are dealing with a telephoned bomb threat, try to ask the caller the following questions. (These questions may seem silly, but because of the tension and excitement that arises when a person is making a bomb threat, the answers, if any, may reveal more than you would expect.) * Where is it right now? * When is the bomb going to explode? * What does it look like? * What kind of a bomb is it? * Did you place the bomb? * Why? * What is your address? * What is your name? • After the caller has hung up, and you have written down briefly as many of the pertinent details of the conversation as you can v remember, including your impressions of the caller, telephone to the Antiterrorist Squad 210-6446555, 210-6445907, to report the threat and contact also the Crisis Response Team of the School.
