SHELTER IN PLACE… “Shelter in place means seeking immediate shelter inside a building or University residence. • This course of action may need to be taken during a tornado, an active threat such as a shooting, or a release of major hazardous materials in the outside air. • When you hear the sirens immediately go inside a building to a safe location and use all communication means available to find out more details about the emergency. • Remain in place until police, fire, or other emergency response personnel provide additional guidance or tell you it is safe to leave. ”

SHELTER—ACTIVE THREAT • Outdoor warning sirens will activate. • Approximately 3 minutes. • Normally, all other Purdue ALERT layers will be activated… • Response depends on…

RUN… • If there is an accessible escape path, attempt to escape the premises. Be sure to: • • • Have an escape route and plan in mind Escape regardless of whether others agree to follow Leave your belongings behind Help others escape, if possible Prevent individuals from entering an area where the active shooter may be Keep your hands visible Follow the instructions of any police officers Do not attempt to move wounded people Call 911 when you are safe

HIDE… • If escape is not possible, find a place to hide where the active threat is less likely to find you. • Your hiding place should: • Be out of the active threat’s view • Provide protection if shots are fired in your direction (i. e. , an office with a closed and locked door) • Not trap you or restrict your options for movement • To prevent an active threat, such as a shooter from entering your hiding place: • Lock the door if safely possible • Blockade the door with heavy furniture

SHELTER—HAZMAT • Accidental release of toxic chemicals the air quality may be threatened and sheltering in place keeps you inside an area offering more protection. • Selected layers of Purdue ALERT will normally be used. • Try and obtain additional clarifying information by all possible means.

SHELTER—HAZMAT (CONT) • Close all windows and doors. • Move to the shelter in place location. • Do not go outside or attempt to drive unless you are specifically instructed to evacuate. • Do not use elevators as they may pump air into or out of the building. • Any occupant who encounters a student or visitor should direct them to take appropriate actions. • Any occupant that encounters a physically disabled individual should assist them if possible.
