II. Responsibilities of UAF Administration

  1. It is the intent of the University of Alaska Fairbanks to provide employees, students, the media and the public with the facts concerning a crisis as information becomes available.

  2. The University Relations director, UAF chancellor, UAF police chief and the senior student affairs officer or their designees will direct response at the first level of a crisis. As soon as one member of this first response team is alerted to a crisis incident, he/she will contact other members of the team and the UA president.

  3. Depending on the nature of the incident, the UAF chancellor or designee may convene all or some of the chancellor's cabinet to assist in assessment and response to the crisis.

  4. Critical, on-call personnel or crisis team members will be identified in each unit before a crisis occurs. Emergency contact information will be updated and distributed regularly. In the event of a crisis, a response team may be assembled from several units to assess and respond to the crisis.
