Risk Management

Westminster College is committed to providing a safe educational and work environment. The Risk Management Office coordinates information and works to clearly communicate procedures with regard to fire protection, loss control activities, safety, emergency management, claims administration and review in consultation with administration, and the risk aspects of contracts or other legal documents.

Building Guardian Program. This is a new program which assigns two people to each building on campus to act as guardians. They will receive training in emergency actions, such as the location of emergency exits, use of fire extinguishers, and location of telephone land lines. This program is evolving. One of the purposes of this program is to create an additional way to communicate with and protect our community comprised of of numerous individuals located in various kinds of buildings across campus. This program will be in addition to and in conjunction with other methods of communication, such as bull horns, sirens, etc.

Please REPORT to Dixie Egan (2515), campus patrol (2525), or risk management (2565 or 2657) any dangerous or potentially dangerous situations, including dripping water, shattered glass, strange odors, etc. Although campus patrol and maintenance work diligently to keep the campus safe, they need the reports from faculty and staff so that problems can be fixed before property or people are injured.

The Threat Assessment and Behavior Intervention Committee (TABIC). The purpose of this committee is to formalize the college’s processes of addressing behavior that may be threatening, disruptive, or harmful. The committee is comprised of the associate provost of student development, the dean of students, the director of the counseling center, the director of human resources, and general counsel. The committee will also consult with other people with experience and expertise regarding specific situations.

Please REPORT to your dean or supervisor or to any member of TABIC any behaviors or conversations they have seen or heard that cause you to be concerned that someone is engaging or may in engage in behavior that is threatening, disruptive, or harmful.
Please REPORT to campus patrol (2525) or risk management (2565 or 2657) anyone, including an unsupervised minor, who appears to be loitering or acting in a suspicious manner.

Please use the links at the left to explore Westminster College's risk management policies and procedures. Be sure to check back often because, in the coming months, the site will expand and emphasize safety as one of the fundamental expectations at Westminster College.

Risk management is really everyone's responsibility.

A good safety culture is one where everyone has a stake in safety and everyone acts in ways that protect the safety of others.
