Campus Safety - Emergency Management

Campus Security

Prepared for Emergencies

There have been several events in recent years that serve as powerful reminders of the need for universities nationwide to be prepared for various types of emergencies. Harding University has taken steps to ensure that any emergency that could potentially occur on campus has been carefully considered, and that appropriate plans have been devised to cope with any such emergency.

 

Stay Informed

Information about specific emergencies can be found by tuning in to HU16 television station or KVHU Radio Station (95.3 FM), by calling the Harding University Emergency Information Hotline 501-279-INFO (4636), by checking Pipeline, or by opting in to the optional text messaging service provided by Harding University. Emergency information may also be relayed through building managers, faculty and staff and may be broadcast over loudspeaker throughout the center of campus.

To opt into the Harding University Emergency Text Message notification system, login to Pipeline.

The Emergency Management Committee

An Emergency Management Committee was formed in the fall of 2001 after the events of 9/11. The committee was charged with revising existing emergency response plans and creating new ones to better enable the University to respond to various types of emergencies should they occur on campus.

The committee is comprised of faculty and staff members from various departments and areas on campus. Some of the roles of the committee include planning and enacting disaster drills on campus; reviewing and revising emergency response policies and procedures; reviewing, updating, and implementing emergency communications; and providing emergency preparedness training for the Harding community.
