Abstract

Campus Roles in Emergency Management

Colleges and universities may become victims of natural, technological and human-caused disaster events, but they can become both self-reliant and a community resource through planning and preparedness. The campus is a multi-faceted environment with its unique population and resource base that can be viewed through several lenses. Each lens offers a different way of understanding the campus’s role in disasters.
