The Daily Bruin

Nike, HP, CMF International. Did you know many of our students have worked for these firms, plus others? They have held internships in industries such as nonprofit/policy, business, design/creative, human services and ministry.

If you know of students who are wondering how to land an internship in one of these industry clusters, encourage them to come to our peer panel event Thursday, Nov. 5, at 7:30 p.m. in the EHS Atrium, where they can hear from their peers about how they’ve been landing their own internships.

More information is available at this link, by contacting TJ Haimoto at thaimoto13@georgefox.edu, or by stopping by the IDEA Center.

Staff and students: We posted a link to the Active Shooter Protocol a few weeks ago, but in case you didn’t have a chance to click on the link, here is a more in-depth version of our Active Shooter Protocol:

Active Shooter Protocol

Assumption: The presence of an active shooter on campus
Emergency Classification: 1
Primary Incident Commander: VP of Student Life or Director of Security
Persons/Agencies Involved:

• Crisis Management Team, President, and Executive Leadership Team
• Newberg Police Department
• Environmental Safety Coordinator
• Plant Services
• University Communications

INITIAL RESPONSE:

1. If you are involved in a situation where someone has entered the area and started shooting, the following are a list of recommended actions: RUN

a. Exit the building immediately, leave your belongings behind
b. Notify anyone you may encounter to exit the building immediately
c. Notify the police by calling 911
d. Give the 911 operator the following information:

• Your name
• Location of the incident (be as specific as possible)
• Number of shooters (if known)
• Identification of shooter (if known)
• Number of persons who may be involved
• Your location
• Notify Campus Security at 503-554-2090
• Keep your hands visible
• Follow the instructions of any police officers
• Do not attempt to move wounded people

2. If you are directly involved and exiting the building is not possible, the following actions are recommended: HIDE

a. Go to the nearest room or office
b. Close the door, lock if possible
c. Cover or blockade the door/ windows and shut off lights if time allows
d. Keep quiet, silence cell phones, spread out, and act as if no one is in the room

g. Give the 911 operator the following information:

• Your name
• Your location (be as specific as possible)
• Number of shooters (if known)
• Identification of shooter (if known)
• Number of persons who may be involved
• Wait for the police to assist you out of the building
• If you cannot speak, leave the line open and allow the dispatcher to listen

3. As a last resort: FIGHT

If you are trapped and an active shooter enters your area you will need to protect yourself and others. Take action immediately!

• Throw anything at the shooter to cause a distraction
• Join others to tackle/immobilize shooter
• Restrain shooter until help arrives
• Activate Crisis Management Team(CMT) and Establish Emergency Operations Center (EOC)
• Possible initiation of campus lockdown and implementation of emergency notification system

NOTE: As a campus with unarmed officers our directive to the officers is to immediately contact the police and then help to evacuate any personnel from the immediate area IF they can do so without becoming a target or making others a target. One officer will contact the student life office to begin the notification procedure which initiates the emergency notification system and procedures outlined previously in this document. When the Newberg Police Department arrives we turn the command over to them and then assist in any way possible, as we know the layout of the campus and are able to access facilities.

The campus will look a bit different on Saturday, as we expect to host more than 3,000 guests for Family Weekend and our football game against Linfield. Here are some things to make note of:

Bauman Parking Lot
Be sure to move your cars out of the Bauman parking lot on Friday evening. This space will be dedicated to vendors and tailgating on Saturday. Stop by on Saturday and check out all of the food and activities (including a “Tailgate-or-Treat”) happening before the game!

Entrances to the football game
There will be two entrances into the game and both are located in the Bauman parking lot, directly behind the stadium.

Wheeler Sports Center closed
The Wheeler Sports Center will be closed from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. This means the basketball gym, racquetball courts and locker rooms will be closed. The Fitness Center will remain open for normal business hours, but you will need to enter through the hallway entrance located on the field level, toward the end of the building near the tennis courts. There will be security officers who will ask you where you are headed; just let them know that you are going to work out.

Bauman Walkway
The sidewalk located between the football stadium and Bauman will be closed. Please walk around the building and do not move the barricade.

Barricades
If you see a barricade, it is there for a reason. Please do not move them, jump over them, crawl under them, or unlock them.

Circle Parking Lot
The circle parking lot near Wheeler will be closed for the day. This space is reserved for officials to park in. Officials will arrive as early as 8:30 a.m.

Sideline Passes
No one will be granted field access without a sideline pass. Sideline passes are issued to those who are required to work and/or have official business during the game.

Tickets
Students and staff can show their ID cards at the gate to get into the game. Additional tickets can be purchased online or at the gate by visiting this link.

Family Weekend Tailgating
We are expecting a crowd of 600-plus for Family Weekend! We will have bags available for families to “Tailgate-or-Treat,” so if you or your department/floor would like to bring candy to pass out under the big Alumni and Parent Relations tent from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. we are happy to have you join us!

We hope to see you at the game at 1:30 p.m. and the tailgates prior to that!
