If the College becomes aware of a utility failure, it will notifiy the College community by:
1. Phone System. During a power failure the phone system will be on a two (2) hour battery back up allowing time to make a campus-wide notification.
2. Computer System. We now have a generator backup for the computer system in Voter. In the event of a power failure the computer system will remain in service and would be immediately accessable to you once your power is restored.
3. Other Systems. When other systems are not functioning, Facilities Services will notify the campus community by e-mail or voice mail. You may also contact the facilities phone tree hot line at 5472 for updated information.
