Planning for a Campus Emergency By Patrick V. Fiel, Sr. Natural disasters happen in many ways and places – a hurricane in Florida, a flood in Missouri, a tornado in Oklahoma, a wildfire in Colorado or an earthquake in California. Then there are the man-made disasters such as chemical spills, traffic accidents or a shooter on campus. While they may differ in cause, they all share one t
