Fire Prevention

Every year college and university students experience a growing number of fire-related emergencies. To help bring attention to this serious concern, September has been designated Campus Fire Safey Month.

Fire safety education is an effective method of reducing the occurence of fires, loss of life and destruction of property. Stony Brook University Fire Marshals from Environmental Health & Safety planned the following events and activities with the Division of Campus Residences. All students, faculty and staff are encouraged to attend and participate in fire safety program activities throughout the year.
