Campus Communications

  • Emergency Communications

    Emergency messages will be sent when a situation poses an immediate risk to the health and safety of the campus community, disrupts programs and/or activities, or results in the closing of a campus, center or facility. Emergency messages will also be sent when severe weather results in the closing of campuses or centers and the cancellation of classes and activities.

    The college uses many methods of communication during an emergency to ensure that emergency messages reach as many people as possible:

    Note: Not all methods are used in each situation

    For questions on emergency communication, contact the Communications and External Relations Office at (815) 280-2915, email communications@jjc.edu or call Campus Police at (815) 280-2234.

  • Emergency Response Plan

    The Emergency Response Plan (ERP) has been designed to provide a contingency manual for Joliet Junior College staff in order to plan for possible campus emergencies. While the plan does not cover every conceivable situation, it does supply the basic guidelines necessary to cope with most campus emergencies.

    An Emergency Response Plan combined with occupant familiarity with a building, minimizes threats to life and property. This ERP is intended to communicate the policies and procedures for occupants to follow in an emergency situation.
