Before a hurricane, faculty and staff supervisors should inform students and staff of actions to protect themselves from injury or death.

HAVE BASIC EMERGENCY SUPPLIES ON HAND:

• A portable radio
• Flashlights with extra batteries
• A first aid kit and handbook
• Water (a few gallons per person)
• Food (canned food with mechanical opener, required medications and powdered milk)
• Pipe wrenches and crescent wrenches
• Know where your gas, electric and water main shutoffs are.  If in doubt, ask your water, power and gas companies.
• Have a plan to reunite your family since travel may be difficult or even restricted after a major hurricane or earthquake.
