In an effort to promote safety, new campus buildings will continue to be constructed in full compliance with building and fire codes. We continue to improve fire safety features in older buildings as we request funds and they become available, e.g., fire sprinklers are continuously installed in many older buildings, stairwells are being enclosed, etc. These actions will greatly increase student and staff safety, and in the regrettable event of a fire, will reduce the extent and severity of the emergency.
