Emergency Preparedness Information
You can rest assured that Pepperdine works to ensure that we are prepared for emergencies when they impact any of the institution's schools or departments.
Our administration considers protecting its faculty, staff, students, and resources a serious responsibility. The University prudently expends resources to ensure that it is properly prepared for whatever domestic or international emergency may impact the institution. When crises impact other schools – be it Hurricane Katrina, a flu epidemic, or a fire – Pepperdine studies the event and betters its plans, realizing that preparation is never complete and that there is always more to learn. Drills are conducted regularly to ensure appropriate processes within a planned response. Part of that ongoing preparedness is educating faculty, staff, and students on how they should prepare for and respond to emergencies.
