At Crown College, we value the safety and security of all community members in our care. We make it a top priority to act with speed and intention in the event of an emergency. Therefore it is necessary and important for each person to be adequately informed in order to understand procedure and his/her role in the event of an emergency on campus. The emergency procedures below describe the responsibilities necessary of each person in emergency situations. In order to familiarize the college community with the emergency procedures, Crown will conduct regular emergency drills for students and employees to practice walking through the steps to take in the event of an emergency.
All students and employees are strongly encouraged to add the Crown College Campus Safety phone number, 952-412-3658, as a cell phone speed-dial option; calls are answered 24 hours a day.
