University Police Department

Building Marshals are responsible for assisting in the safe and orderly evacuation of campus facilities and buildings in the event of a disaster, preventing re-entry, and reporting injuries and probable locations of trapped individuals to the University Police. Training provided to these individuals will aid in establishing search and rescue priorities. As disaster service workers, marshals have the authority to insure that buildings are evacuated and secured.
