Emergency Management Group
The system for managing resources, analyzing information and making decisions in an emergency is called direction and control. It is important that each person in the emergency management group know who is in charge of what segment of the response and upon whom the final responsibility rests.
On the Amherst College Campus, final responsibility shall always rest with the President of the College or his/her designee. The Amherst College President shall remain "in-charge" of the emergency management of College-wide responses; however, he/she may defer to the expertise of the Emergency Director, Incident Commanders or other members of the Emergency Management Group.
Members of the Emergency Management Group that may be called upon to be Incident Commanders must be trained and knowledgeable of the Emergency Management Plan. Other members of the Emergency Management Group must also be aware of the plan and the appropriate role that they will play.
