The Office of the Vice President of Student Services and Outreach serves as the primary referral point for students
who need to be contacted due to a critical emergency. Our
office number is 248-1366. Office hours are 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.,
Monday through Friday.
Determining messaging for "emergencies" while students
are in class will be handled on a case by case basis. It is important
to note that we cannot guarantee a contact with any student due
to their highly mobile behavior, but a good faith effort will
be made. Keep in mind that we are not a messaging service for
non-emergent situations. Our office would like to recommend that
you provide your family members/day care providers copies of your
class schedule, cell phone numbers and/or pager number.
Depending on the type of emergency, a message will be delivered
to the faculty member or work supervisor asking for the student
to be dismissed and to:
- Immediately contact the source of the message or;
- Immediately proceed to the Vice President of Student Services and Outreach office for pertinent information.
As a reminder, in the event of situations which present imminent
danger on campus, the most appropriate call would be of course
911. A follow up call to the Vice President of Student Services and Outreach office (970-248-1366) would be appreciated
as we typically try to follow up on situations which may impact
the academic pursuit of a student.
Students should consider purchasing a pager, cell phone or messaging
service allowing for immediate access for those who need to reach
you regarding your children and/or personal needs.
