Innerspring or memory foam mattress, we have it for less.As Franklin & Marshall Students, you have rights regarding personal safety and security. In order to ensure these rights for you and your fellow students, you must abide by certain policies. Fulfilling these policies and requirements is your responsibility as a student at F&M. Minimum mandatory sanctions will be imposed for failing to comply. In the event of a fire, the building fire alarm should be activated and the Department of Public Safety should be called (ext. 3939) to have them assist in evacuating residents. Students should familiarize themselves with the location of fire alarm pull stations, fire extinguishers, exits and a designated meeting place during alarms.
Fire extinguishers, smoke detectors, heat detectors, sprinkler heads and pull stations are installed for the protection of building occupants, and are wired directly to the Department of Public Safety. Tampering with fire protection systems or turning in a false alarm is a violation of the Lancaster City Fire Code and the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and is classified as a felony, punishable by a fine and/or imprisonment of up to five years. A student found guilty of this felony also could be expelled rom the College. This policy extends to all residential facilities including, but not limited to all College owned and approved housing. • Health & Safety Inspections — Random Health & Safety inspections will take place throughout the year. Any safety violation will be recorded. • Fire Alarms — When the fire alarm in your building sounds, it is your responsibility to leave the building immediately. Although some fire alarms are false, you must treat every fire alarm as if a real fire is occurring.
Maliciously pulling a fire alarm is a serious offense. It disrupts the life of every resident in the building and places at risk the lives of the responding fire personnel and resident staff. If you witness an alarm being pulled falsely, notify your HA immediately. • Fire Extinguishers — Fire extinguishers are placed in specific locations throughout each residence hall. These extinguishers should be used only in the event of an actual fire. Misuse of a fire extinguisher is a very dangerous act. • Door Propping — The first step toward a safe community is keeping the exterior door properly locked. Propping open a building door leaves the building and its residents vulnerable to all crimes. The FOB access system for each residence hall door monitors propping. In the event that a door is propped open for more than 60 seconds, a silent alarm sounds to which the Franklin & Marshall DPS will respond. • Prohibited items in residential facilities (except in designated approved areas such as kitchens) Non UL extension cords are not allowed.
