Campus Environment & Safety

The Campus Environment & Safety section of the Cumberland University website has been established to provide information to students, faculty, staff, parents and the community regarding policies and procedures for campus emergencies. Although the website cannot cover every conceivable emergency that might occur, it does provide basic guidelines and contact information for most campus emergencies. For a complete overview of the University's emergency policies and procedures, please download the Cumberland University Emergency Procedures Manual.

Without question, the most important thing to remember when addressing any emergency or crisis situation on campus is that your safety is paramount. The safety of each student, staff member and faculty member is the top priority in all emergency situations.
