Lockdown and Shelter-in-Place

Adelphi’s lockdown or shelter-in-place plan protects students, faculty, and staff in the event of imminent or immediate exposure to a dangerous situation.

Lockdown

The purpose is to lock down campus and have community members in a secure place while law enforcement clears the threat.

Shelter-in-Place

The purpose is to keep the community safe and avoid the hazard while keeping campus paths clear for emergency use.

Lockdown

An immediate physical threat on campus. For instance, the presence of a hostile or armed intruder on campus.

Shelter-in-Place

Used in certain situations such as:

• Weather emergencies
  
• Environmental hazards
  
• Local emergencies (such as nearby police activity)

Lockdown

• Move away from danger
• If outside, seek cover in the nearest building
• Lock doors and barricade entry to classroom, office, or interior room. Stay away from windows.

Shelter-in-Place

• Use a structure to separate you from the hazard
• Take immediate shelter in the nearest building
• Close exterior doors

If an incident occurs and the building you are in is not damaged, stay inside in an interior room until you are told it is safe to come out.

• If your building is damaged, take your personal belongings (purse, wallet, etc.)
• Follow the evacuation procedures for your building (close and lock your door, proceed to the nearest exit, and use the stairs instead of the elevators).
• Once you have evacuated, seek shelter at the nearest university building quickly.
• If police or fire department personnel are on the scene, follow their directions.

How to Shelter-in-Place

If an incident occurs where sheltering-in-place is the best option, remember toGet Inside, Lock Outside Doors, remain calm, and follow these steps, unless instructed otherwise by emergency personnel:

• When you are notified of an emergency, seek or remain in a location that is safe from the affected area.
• If you are teaching a class, pause your lecture, make sure the halls are clear, and stay in your classroom or area.
• When in a safe area, attempt to secure the space in a reasonable manner.
• 待在安全区域，保持安静，除非制造噪音有利于你的安全(例如，增加救援或恢复的可能性)。
• Stay away from objects that may lead to a higher risk of injury (such as windows during a storm).
• Do not leave the area of safety until you are notified that the emergency is no longer a threat to personal safety.

Lockdown

If an incident occurs where lockdown is the best option, remember the saying “Locks, Lights, Out of Sight.” During a lockdown, it is important to remain calm, quiet, mute all cell phones, and follow the HIDE in theHostile Intruder Poster. Follow the Hostile Intruder action steps for your location below.

You must decide what you are going to do. This is a very crucial time and can possibly mean life or death depending on what actions you take. You can try to hide, but make sure it is a well-hidden space or you may be found as the intruder moves through the residence hall looking for more victims.

• If you think you can safely make it out of the building by running, then do so.
• 如果你决定跑步，不要跑在直线上。在大楼里，尽可能在你和敌对的人之间放上任何东西。
• Once outside, do not run in a straight line. Use trees, vehicles or any type of object to block your view from the residence hall as you run. When away from the immediate area of danger, summon help any way you can and warn others.
• 如果有人造成死亡或对他人造成严重身体伤害，而你又无法逃跑或躲藏，如果周围有其他受害者，你可以选择假装死亡。
• The last option you have if caught in an open area in the residence hall may be to fight back. This is dangerous, but depending on your situation, this could be your last option.
• 如果你被入侵者抓住了，不打算反击，服从所有的命令，不要直视入侵者的眼睛。
