Housing Emergency Simulation Paper
Suggestion for the next Simulation:
The Housing Department has been conducting the Emergency Simulation since 1986 with the University Police Department, Arcata Fire Department, and Arcata Mad River Ambulance. This exercise was primarily viewed as “Housing’s Drill,” rather than a campus-wide emergency exercise. This is the third year the Housing Emergency Simulation was viewed as a campus-wide Emergency Drill, facilitating an interdepartmental emergency response exercise by Housing & Residence Life, and Emergency Operation Center, AFD, UPD, CERT, and AMRA. I strongly urge on collaboration (Housing, EOC, AFD, UPD, CERT, and AMRA) over the next year as we plan for the 2018 Housing Emergency Simulation.
