Emergency/Bad-Weather Policy

Emergency/Bad Weather Policy If an issue or safety hazard arises during the event at the Stewart Center, immediately find and notify anyone wearing a black SIGBots shirt. For building wide emergencies, listen for Purdue University alerts: a building fire alarm means you must immediately evacuate using the stairs , while outdoor sirens mean you must shelter in place inside the facility. For severe, life threatening medical emergencies or fires, call 911 first, and then inform a black shirted staff member so they can help guide emergency responders to your location.
