The College President or designee is responsible for issuing timely warnings in compliance with the Clery Act. Anyone with warranting information should report to the switchboard operator or campus law enforcement. Timely warning decisions are case-by-case considering available facts, whether the crime is a serious or continuing threat to students or employees, and possible compromise of law enforcement efforts. Upon confirmation of a significant emergency or dangerous situation involving immediate threat to health or safety of students, employees, and visitors on or off campus, the campus community is to be immediately notified unless notification would compromise efforts to contain the emergency. The President or designee informs the community by immediately placing a message on the public address system, phone tree, campus-wide email, and/or posting on the campus website. The page also references the SCC Critical Incident Plan for fire, weather, emergencies, and violence, with evacuation routes and safe areas posted campus-wide.
