July 27, 2005—Each year not only do many students lose their lives in a fire, but fires also cause millions of dollars in property damage, injuries and grief to victims’ families, friends and classmates.
The American Society of Safety Engineers’ (ASSE) Fire Protection Branch has developed seven free fire safety tip sheets on:
College Fires: Statistics and Causes; How to Prevent On- and Off Campus Fires; Fire Escape Planning: What to do in case of a Fire; Fire Safety Equipment for Off-Campus and Greek Housing; Recent College Fires/Tragedies; Parents Guide, Questions to Ask; and College Fires: Key Safety Resources.
For free copies of the ASSE Fire Safety Tips, go to the ASSE Web site.
