Crisis management protocols

The K-State Crisis Management Committee has developed protocols for staff and faculty to utilize when managing a student crisis. A helpful and skilled response to crisis is a hallmark of our caring university environment. Whenever a crisis happens on campus it is beneficial to have helpful guidelines to follow and resources to contact for additional help.

The purpose of the Crisis Management Committee is to continuously update crisis management plans and crisis protocols, to communicate with various campus entities who deal with crisis and safety issues, and to network with city and county agencies that deal with student crisis and emergencies. The Crisis Management Committee meets six times a year.

The three categories of student crisis include:

1. Psychological crisis (html link) (pdf link)

3. Student safety crisis (html link) (pdf link)
