All Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹û buildings are equipped with fire pull-boxes, alarms, emergency strobe lights, and emergency lighting. When activated, these warnings should direct those occupants and other people affected to evacuate the building immediately via the evacuation route indicated on the evacuation diagram located on each floor of all Endicott facilities. The College has provided the residence halls with automated fire prevention systems that are monitored 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Fire protection systems in residence halls consist of sprinkler systems, both wet and dry, tied to master boxes and fire alarm panels.

Fire drills are conducted once a year in residential and administrative buildings in coordination with the Beverly Fire Department. Unannounced fire prevention inspections are conducted quarterly as a collaborative effort between Residence Life, the Beverly Fire Department, and Public Safety.

The Public Safety Department urges all members of the community to familiarize themselves with the traffic and parking regulations on campus and to operate their motor vehicles in a safe manner. Please be mindful of the following:

• Obey all traffic signs, and be prepared to stop at all intersections.
• Obey the speed limit – speed limit on campus is 15 miles per hour.

• Never get behind the wheel if you've been drinking, and don't get in a vehicle with an impaired driver.
• Be a defensive driver – look around and be cognizant of your classmates walking on campus.
• There is absolutely no parking in a fire lane, regardless of the reason or length of time that you are parked at a particular location.
