MCC is committed to creating an accessible and inclusive campus for all students.
Learn about accessibility resources, accommodations, and services available to help
ensure students can fully participate in campus life and their education.
Consider an evacuation plan for housing facilities, classroom buildings, cafeterias,
libraries, and other campus buildings. Familiarize yourself with the closest fire
exits, doors, stairways, and fire extinguishers when you first enter a building.
Visual Impairments
Students with visual impairments should follow regular evacuation procedures. Students
who are not thoroughly familiar with the immediate surroundings should ask another
person for guidance to the nearest emergency exit. The person who is providing assistance
should guide the student as they walk, describe the pathway, any obstacles, and orient
the student to the surroundings when they have reached a safe place.
Hearing Impairments
Students with hearing impairments may not readily perceive emergency alarms; please
note that alarms are equipped with strobes that flash in the event of an emergency.
Students with hearing impairments can receive emergency communication through visual
cues, such as eye contact, gestures, and touch.
Mobility Impairments
Students with mobility impairments who are on the ground floor may be able to exit
unassisted. For students with mobility impairments that are unable to exit a building
safely should report to the nearest “Emergency Assembly Area” to wait the arrival
of public safety, emergency personnel, police, or fire department. Note: Only in
the case of an extreme emergency should lifting and/or transporting by untrained emergency
personnel be considered.
