Procedure:     Emergency Messages to Students
Department:    Enrollment Services
Contact:          John Hamblin, (541) 463-5686                 hamblinj@lanecc.edu

Students are notified of emergency messages that involve a death, illness, injury, accident, or a threat to a student's livelihood or property.  Examples are:
 

1. An ill or injured child who requires parental consent for treatment if the parent is a Lane Community College student;

2. A family or household member who is either injured or ill and needs transportation;

3. A student's employer who calls regarding a business emergency where the student's job may depend on their response; or

4. A student who may own or be responsible for livestock or other animals that have escaped confinement.
 

Any call received by the campus switchboard or a department and identified as an emergency message for a student shall be transferred to Enrollment Services.

All student emergency messages received by Enrollment Services are handled as follows:
 

1. If the call is received from the switchboard or a department, an attempt is made to deliver the message.  Contact is made with the department in closest proximity to the student's scheduled class area; and

2.  If Enrollment Services is unable to locate the student or is unable to make the emergency message delivery, Enrollment Services will contact the originator and let them know the message cannot be delivered.
