campus.
The dorms will participate. Dean will notify faculty and monitors
for each
building are in place.
Since the week of 10-3 to 10-9 is National Fire Awareness Week,
information
about fire safety will be posted on Pipeline and campus activities
will be planned
with the El Dorado Fire Dept.

distributed on Pipeline.
D. Web Services –
Ramona will see if we can have a “channel” on the

personal page that would link directly to the Safety site and
emergency
information.
Linda would like to have a Crime Stoppers type of program begin
where students could report a crime without being identified.
E. First Responders –
Alexis Hopkins sent a report that she will begin to train
Facilities Management in CPR/1st Aid this semester. She is certified
with the
Red Cross to do many other training's as well. We will look
at the training of
staff in CPR/1st Aid for this year, at the next meeting. She
can train free, but
booklets will have to be purchased, possibly through mini-grant.
F. Grant/Fund Raising –
Tiffany brought up the fact that the budget has been set for
the year so we should plan for any request of funds in next
years budget by next
summer. We will look at grants and possible fund raisers in
the mean time to
fund projects. Judy Carney will be contacted about grants that
may help fund
projects in the mean time.
Adrian said that as a fund raiser, we could obtain tickets to
the “Evening of
Giving” in the mall in Wichita to sell. Tickets are $10.00
and $5.00 would go to
us.
G. Campus Facilities/Legal Issues – no report
Tonya
brought a flier for a Hazardous Materials training in the El
Dorado area that is free of charge. Information about this training
will be sent to all employees. She also, brought up the idea
of faculty ID’s that could have emergency information
on the back. This could be done for student ID’s as well.
Tonya brought samples of emergency plan pocket information that
Boeing uses. This information is to the point and relevant to
their safety concerns. This could be easily adapted for our
safety plans.
Other:
Safety Logo - Ramona thought it might be a good idea to have
a Safety logo. Linda will
check with Marketing.
Dates of meetings – It was decided that the standard date

Heidi Hulse, Joyce Harris, Ronda Holt, Micaela Ayers, Julie
Willhite, Ramona Becker, Dona Larimer Kim Austin, Tiffany Blaske,
Janece English, Jeff Tymony, Linda Clarke
The meeting was opened by Linda Clarke, with a welcome to new members of the group.
Linda shared that there was lots of interest in having a satellite group at the Andover site. It was her hope that we would have a representative common to each group to share and combine information and activities between each site. It was also discussed to try and foster interest in the Rose Hill area and assist that group to meet their specific needs. The Flinthills sites are already working on their specific safety concerns through the Emergency procedures instigated at our Institutional development days.
Linda met with Marvin Dodson, Facilities Director, to discuss safety issues. 1. Alarms in the 900 bldg – Marvin will see that this is completed with smoke detectors as well as alarms. 2. The security phone number cannot be a 4 digit number. It must stay a 7-digit number to be usable. **In regards to posting the security numbers in each office, Ramona Becker will send a list of numbers for each phone as requested. She can be emailed at rbecker@butlercc.edu 3. Hole in the parking lot has been fixed. 4. Marvin will also be able to post signs explaining emergency procedures, we just need to determine what needs to be on each sign. Linda stated that the relationship with Facilities Management was very good and Marvin is very positive about any and all of our suggestions.
New suggestions are as follows:
1. Call boxes around campus – Linda will address this issue.
2. Check on the issue of flashlights for security personnel – the question was as to whom they are provided for and who they are not provided for.
3. Light in back parking lot that goes off to early.
4. No lights at north of 100 bldg
5. Picture name badges for each employee. ex: Fac. Mag and Educare use these types. Need to check with Bill Rinkenbaugh.
New Committees:
New committees were presented – *see list attached.
Issues were discussed pertaining to specific committees:
First responders – listing all certified personnel and list all personnel who would
need to be re-certified. Have some sort of system in place to flag anyone who is
certified so their services could be utilized. It was also discussed about first aid
kits…where they are located, how to get one if one is not available, funding issues. It was suggested that we utilize an outside group such as Boy Scouts for help in getting kits available.
Events – Would like to work on a safe spring break party.
Each group is to have a report for the next meeting concerning their particular committee.
-
The Safety Review Report form was presented and discussed as to what changes need to be made. Only the first section will be completed by the person submitting the form the remaining will be completed by the necessary personnel involved. Linda will look for this form on her computer to see if changes can be made there, if not a new one will be worked up with more information as how to complete and who to submit it to. This will also be submitted on the web site as soon as it is revised.
Date has been set for the spring fire drill – January 29, 2004 at 9:30 am
A Date will be set for the spring Tornado Drill by the Drills Committee by the next meeting.
Safety Shorts – this is a power point presentation on hazardous materials etc. which can be made available. We will review and forward on to other departments for their use if they prove to be helpful information. The Library also has tapes, which were grant funded, to help get information to departments concerning safety issues.
CSHEMA – this is another avenue to help with information concerning campus safety that can be considered.
Mark your calendar for Wednesday, December 10, 2003 at 2:00 location to be announced.

Fire drill -
As follow-up of the fire drill, it was determined that I should speak to Marvin Dodson about whether I should turn in a service request for an alarm system in the 900 Bldg., or just report that we need this done. There was discussion about how we can follow up on requests made of Facilities for repairs, etc. I will meet with Marvin to discuss these issues.
The number of fire drills was discussed. The Fire Chief thought we should have a fire drill once a month, but due to the class interference, we decided it would be best to have one at the beginning of each semester, with a tornado drill included in the Spring semester. A fire drill for summer school will also be included. These will need to be approved by Marvin.
The next drill will have information emailed out to everyone so that they know where to go and the procedures to take. We will also have information placed in the new instructor’s packets that will have the emergency procedures.
Teresa will look into information about EVAC chairs for students in wheelchairs. We will see if these could be purchased for the 1500, 600 Bldgs. and the Dorm.
Overall, the fire drill was a success and showed us some areas that needed to be changed or improved. We will try to get hats and badges for the Marshall’s next time.
First Responders –
We will need to send out an email to find those instructors that already are CPR/1st Aid certified. There was discussion about sending out the CPR masks without proper training. We will hold them until we discuss this further.
Safety Kits –
Overall, there was good reception to the safety kits at the Institutional Development Day. It was suggested that kits could be in a centralized area where anyone could get them also. We need to add band aids with a content list and safety instructions.
Safety Web site–
It was suggested that the Safety/Security web site be located off of the front page of the Butler main page instead of through Faculty Development. I will talk to Andy about the possibility.
Signage
for Shelters –I
will speak to Marvin about getting signs in each building that
will indicate emergency procedures and areas of protection specific
to that building.
Future Meetings –
We determined that the best meeting time for most members was the 2nd Thursday of each month at 2:00 pm. I will see if there is room availability at this time.
