Accident Reports

Fire Alarm• Cease activity and use nearest exit to leave building. Participants can gather across Watkins

Center Drive under the trees. There is no such thing as a false alarm – we treat all alarms as real until told by Police and Fire personnel that the building is safe to re-enter.

Blood/Chemical Spill • Cease activity and contact KU Recreation Services staff member on duty for clean up. Do not

clean up the spill on your own! Water Leak• Cease activity and report leak to KU Recreation Services staff member on duty who will then

determine cleanup procedures and whether or not activity can continue. Power Outage• Cease activity and follow direction of KU Recreation Services staff members on duty.

Emergency Procedures

Within KU Facilities

Tornado• Participants who stay in the Recreation Center must proceed to

the lowest possible level of the building to a tornado shelter area: bathrooms, locker rooms, dressing rooms, conference room (next to administrative office), or anywhere KU Rec Services staff directs you.

• If at Shenk or other outdoor location, and you are caught in the open in a tornado, try to find a depression such as a ditch or culvert to hide in. Lie flat, make as small a target as possible. If you can, wrap a covering around exposed portions of your body.

Storm Warning• Cease Activity

Emergency Procedures

Usually closing is associated with cancellation of classes and closure of the KU Student Recreation Fitness Center.

Inclement weather may or may not be declared at the same time classes are cancelled. Inclement weather for the Lawrence campus is determined by the Provost’s Office.

If inclement weather is declared during the normal workday from 8am to 5pm, HR/EO starts a campus ‘calling tree’ to notify departmental contacts that inclement weather has been declared. Often emails are sent to departmental contacts, too.

If inclement weather is declared outside the normal workday from 8am to 5pm, the declaration will be announced via area news media (after 5:45a.m.), the inclement weather line (864-SNOW after 6a.m.), the KU website, and the Information Center (864-3506).

Note: this is for more severe weather not just rain that makes the fields unusable.
