DEFINITION OF A CRISIS/EMERGENCY LEVELS<br />
For the purposes of this plan there are three types of crisis. They are defined below. Type #1<br />
does not involve the coordination of the Crisis Management Groups while Types #2 and #3 will<br />
require their coordination.<br />
Any member of <strong>Argosy</strong> <strong>University</strong>’s faculty or staff is authorized to make a decision to call 911.<br />
When in doubt, it is the campus’s policy to err on the side of caution. After <strong>report</strong>ing an incident<br />
to the 911 operator, the caller should contact a member of the CMT and then as the situation<br />
merits, EDMC legal council and department managers.<br />
The President or his/her designate will assess the elements of the crisis and determine what<br />
level of crisis faces <strong>Argosy</strong> <strong>University</strong>, Inland Empire based on the following criteria:<br />
Type 1 – Minor Emergency<br />
This is a minor department or building crisis that can be resolved with existing campus<br />
resources or limited help. A Type #1 crisis is usually a one-dimensional event that has a limited<br />
duration and has little or no impact on <strong>Argosy</strong> <strong>University</strong>, Inland Empire personnel or operations.<br />
Type 2 – Major Emergency<br />
This is a major incident that involves more than one department or building, and impacts sizable<br />
portions of the campus community. A Type #2 crisis may be a single or a multi-hazard situation,<br />
and often requires considerable coordination with external jurisdictions. Type #2 emergencies<br />
also include imminent events on campus or in the general community that may develop into a<br />
major campus crisis or a full disaster.<br />
Type 3 – Disaster<br />
This is a catastrophic emergency event involving the entire campus and surrounding<br />
community. Immediate resolution of the disaster, which is usually multi-hazard, is beyond the<br />
emergency response capabilities of campus and local resources.<br />
