推定する/予想する the 予期しない, say college 災害 prep 公式の/役人s

When Jefferson Community College was making 計画(する)s to build its first 住居 hall, there was one must-have for 大統領 Carole McCoy: 発生させる人(物)s for backup if the 力/強力にする went out.

With her campus in Watertown, New York in the bulls-注目する,もくろむ of more than 100 インチs of snow each year, she knew students might get stuck. They wouldn't be 冷淡な and hungry.

"That was a 非,不,無-negotiable," McCoy said.

For college 行政官/管理者s, extreme 天候 is yet another hazard to 準備する and practice for on a 名簿(に載せる)/表(にあげる) that 含むs 感染性の 病気 突発/発生s, active shooters and 科学技術の outages. They know it's just a 事柄 of time before a ハリケーン, 地震, トルネード,竜巻, wildfire or winter 嵐/襲撃する could put them in 害(を与える)'s way.

"We know that it can be very 破滅的な and certainly have the 可能性のある to kill or 負傷させる as many people as the worst active shooter 状況/情勢 you could imagine," North Carolina 明言する/公表する University Police 長,指導者 Jack Moorman said, "so making sure that we're 用意が出来ている for it is 必須の."

With more than 20 million students 入会させるd at 7,200 U.S. colleges and universities, higher education leaders say they rely on experience and 専門的知識 to think beyond the basics of food and 避難所 to the special challenges of academia, 含むing keeping students and parents 知らせるd, accounting for students, both international and from this country, not easily 避難させるd, and continuing 指示/教授/教育 and 研究.

Riding out ハリケーン Matthew in her off-campus apartment in October, East Carolina University student Bobbie Jordan Thomas worried that her final semester 計画(する)s were washing away with the 洪水 that, before her 注目する,もくろむs, was swallowing and destroying her beloved Toyota Corolla.

"Turned my world upside 負かす/撃墜する," Thomas said. She 長,率いるd to a 回復 中心 the university opened in the wake of the 嵐/襲撃する with her questions about the internship she'd begun and her 計画(する) s to …に出席する nursing school.

East Carolina developed the 回復 中心 model during ハリケーン Floyd in 1999, said 法案 Koch, associate 副/悪徳行為 (ドイツなどの)首相/(大学の)学長 of 環境の health and campus safety. While the campus 苦しむd mostly minor 損失 from Matthew, leaders 設立する positioning 代表者/国会議員s from the dean's office, student 蓄える/店, health services and other departments in one place was helpful for students, faculty and staff.

公式の/役人s 監視する 天候 報告(する)/憶測s around the clock. Gyms and other large spaces become 指定するd 避難所s with 備蓄(する)s of food, water and cots. 発生させる人(物)s are in place to 力/強力にする 批判的な services. 警報s and (警察などへの)密告,告訴(状) are tweeted, emailed, broadcast, 地位,任命するd online and texted 直接/まっすぐに to 独房 phones through campus communication systems.

"We're able to communicate to 65,000 different 装置s literally within a few minutes in the event of an 緊急," said Tony Callisto, Syracuse University's 上級の 副/悪徳行為 大統領,/社長 for safety and 長,指導者 警官.

"推定する/予想する the 予期しない, 基本的に .... Don't think that things can't happen," said Donald Keith, 緊急 preparedness director at the University of Alabama, where a 2011 トルネード,竜巻 just 行方不明になるd a direct 攻撃する,衝突する but laid 明らかにする, の中で other 詳細(に述べる)s, the need for a system to 受託する and 分配する 寄付s of money and 供給(する)s 申し込む/申し出d by 支持者s.

Schools 準備する both for quick bursts of 破壊, like a トルネード,竜巻, or the 長引かせるd 強調する/ストレス 原因(となる)d by flooding or winter 嵐/襲撃するs.

"What's 特に 関心ing about 天候-関係のある events," Moorman said, "is although you can in some ways be 用意が出来ている for it, and although you can in some ways 最小限に減らす the 衝撃, there is no way that you can 妨げる it."

In California, campuses work to s hore up 40-year-old buildings where even hanging 天井 fixtures could 提起する/ポーズをとる a 脅し in an 地震 ― modern buildings are more seismically sound ― while on upstate New York campuses in Syracuse and Buffalo, 委員会s 計画(する) year-一連の会議、交渉/完成する for winter.

負かす/撃墜する South, Katrina's path through the 湾 Coast in 2005 損失d more than 30 colleges in Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi and 追い出すd 100,000 students, 主要な to matriculation 協定s with other schools for the 落ちる semester, によれば the American 会議 on Education.

The goal, though, is to 保存する courses, leaders say, even if it means teaching and taking them online.

"Continuing 指示/教授/教育 and 研究 and all those things are just as important as 骨折って進むing the roads and 持続するing safety," said Jay Roorbach, 上級の 緊急 planning 調整者/コーディネーター at the University at Buffalo.

Keith, the 緊急 preparedness 公式の/役人 from Alabama, 解任するd the April 2011 call from the 天候 service to his Tuscaloosa campus 緊急 中心 telling him one of 60 トルネード,竜巻s that would strike his 明言する/公表する that day was likely 10 minutes away from reaching campus. With the 計画(する)s 活動させる/戦時編成するd, he and his 同僚s watched the トルネード,竜巻 on cameras as it (機の)カム through the city, until it took out the 力/強力にする grid and the cameras went dark.

"Everything that we'd been working for and 準備するing for was now about to be 実験(する)d," Keith said, "and we were wondering, '承認する, what's going to happen?' "
