Dear Students:
According to recent studies by seismologists, Southern California is
overdue for a major earthquake. USC continues to make diligent
preparations for the disaster we know is coming. On Thursday, October
21, 2010 at 10:21 a.m. USC’s students, faculty, and staff are
participating in the largest earthquake drill in U.S. history, called
the Great California ShakeOut.
On 10/21 at 10:21am students in all classes, labs and residence halls
are to practice the earthquake safety procedure, which is to “DROP,
COVER, AND HOLD”. In an earthquake, the main hazard will be objects
falling such as bookcases, light fixtures, equipment, or other heavy
items. The safest action to take during the earthquake is to drop down,
get under a desk or table, and hold on until the earthquake stops. Do
not panic and run. Do not get in a doorway. If located in a hallway,
simply move away from windows and drop down near an interior wall,
protecting the back of your head and neck. If outdoors, move away from
structures, power poles, or other possible hazards, and stay in an open
area.
In addition to practicing “drop, cover, and hold,” all students should
sign up for the USC emergency notification system, TrojansAlert at
http://trojansalert.usc.edu. In addition everyone is encouraged to have
an emergency kit in your car and home. Identify an out-of-state phone
number that you and members of your family can call to check-in
following a major earthquake, as local phone lines and cell sites may
not work. You might be able to call an out-of-state number more quickly
than calling people within the impacted area.
This statewide earthquake readiness campaign is organized by the
Earthquake Country Alliance, which is led by the Southern California
Earthquake Center headquartered here at USC. Information about the
statewide drill is available at www.shakeout.org. Additional information
about USC Emergency Preparedness and Safety is available at
http://emergencyprep.usc.edu.
Additional information on earthquake safety is listed below.
During an Earthquake:
Minimize your movements during an earthquake to a few steps to a nearby
safe place. Stay indoors until the shaking has stopped and you are sure
exiting is safe. Do not panic and run.
If you are indoors take cover under a sturdy desk, table, or bench or
against an inside wall, and hold on. If there isn’t a table or desk near
you, cover your face and head with your arms and crouch next to an
interior wall. Stay away from glass, windows, outside doors and walls,
and anything that could fall, such as lighting fixtures or furniture.
If you are in bed hold on and protect your head with a pillow, unless
you are under a heavy light fixture that could fall. In that case, move
to the nearest safe place. Stay inside until the shaking stops and it
is safe to go outside. Most injuries during earthquakes occur when
people are hit by falling objects when entering into or exiting from
buildings. Be aware that the electricity may go out or the sprinkler
systems or fire alarms may turn on. DO NOT use the elevators.
If you are outdoors stay there. Move away from buildings, streetlights,
and utility wires. In a moving vehicle stop as quickly as possible and
stay inside. Avoid stopping near or under buildings, trees, overpasses,
and utility wires. Proceed cautiously once the earthquake has stopped,
watching for road and bridge damage.
Following the Earthquake:
Following the earthquake check for injuries in your area. Do not
attempt to move seriously injured persons unless they are in immediate
danger. Call for medical assistance (UPC-213.740.4321/ HSC-
323.442.1000), and render first aid if required. Request aid from
building emergency response teams if needed. Check the area for safety
hazards such as building damage, fires, or gas leaks. If the area or
building appears to be unsafe, leave the building, using stairs not
elevators. If there are no evident safety hazards, no need to evacuate.
If evacuation is necessary, report to your building’s designated
emergency assembly area. Link to building specific information:

After a major earthquake, the university will implement emergency
services to ensure the well-being of staff, faculty, & students. Follow
directives given by emergency response staff. For emergency
information, go tohttp://emergency.usc.edu or call 213.740.9233.
