Campus Emergency Operations Plan
In conjunction with the local, county, and state emergency management and public safety agencies, The School of the Art Institute of Chicago has developed a Campus Emergency Operations Plan. This Plan enhances the emergency response capability for any large scale emergency or disaster on the SAIC campus. When used properly, this Plan can assist the SAIC administration in protecting the lives and property of the students, faculty, and staff.
Incident Assessment Team
The Incident Assessment Team is a group of trained professionals from different departments across campus that discusses and evaluates behaviors of concern that could precede or follow a violent event. The Incident Assessment Team conducts threat assessments, addresses aberrant, dangerous, or threatening behavior on campus, and provides guidance and best practices for preventing violence. The Group has access to a range of support services for students, faculty, and staff members that includes mental health services, crisis management, and comprehensive services for victims, whether provided on campus or by accessing available community resources.
