Emergency Response

In an emergency, employees, students and visitors need to respond safely and quickly. You may be notified of a campus emergency through multiple channels that are part of MRU’s Emergency Notification System.

Emergency Preparedness

Everyone has a role to play in an emergency. Some steps you can take to prepare for emergencies both on and off campus include:

Downloading MRU Now, MRU's official safety app, to receive push notifications during campus emergencies or other time sensitive events. Ensure notifications are enabled on your Android or Apple mobile device.
Reviewing MRU's What to Do in an Emergency e-booklet to help prepare you for specific emergencies that may arise on campus. A pdf version of the booklet can also be downloaded to your desktop or mobile device.
Downloading and printing a one-page emergency procedures poster. COMING SOON
Taking time to familiarize yourself with your surroundings, including nearby exits and escape routes, fire alarm pull stations, and automated external defibrillators (AEDs), before an emergency occurs. During an emergency, remember to stay calm, assess your surroundings and your options, and take action to ensure your own safety.
