Communication Methods continued:

Two-Way Radios

Campus employees who utilize two-way radios for routine business (for example, Police, Physical Plant, etc.) will also receive alerts and warnings via their radios.

Hand-Held Megaphones

Specially trained staff and faculty acting in the capacity of volunteer Building Marshal or CSUN CERT (Community Emergency Response Team) members have access to hand-held megaphones to assist in communicating information during an emergency or critical incident.

Reporting an Emergency

To report an emergency, faculty, staff and students can utilize the blue light phones located on the campus. When activated, the phone connects directly to a CSUN police dispatcher. There are 60 blue light phones strategically placed on campus. There are also yellow emergency call boxes that are TTY compatible for the hearing impaired.

911

To report an emergency from any campus phone, dial 911. You will be connected directly to the CSUN police dispatch center.
