This mission is accomplished by:
- providing central coordination of emergency planning & management activities;
- overseeing the central and college/unit emergency planning processes, and conducting periodic reviews;
- identifying methods for coordinating communications between central and local colleges/units during emergencies;
- ensuring that appropriate emergency training is provided to campus groups and that annual University-wide emergency training is conducted;
- working with appropriate campus constituencies to proactively plan for more coordinated preventive and emergency response measures;
- when necessary, reviewing and recommending changes regarding emergency operations policies and procedures to the Cornell Emergency Management Committee (CEMC), and,
- providing staff and coordination support to the CEMC, and the incident commander in the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) during emergency incidents.
Every Cornellian has a role in preparing for an emergency.
