Crisis Management and Community Support
From time to time we, as members of the Cornell community, are called upon to deal with the unfortunate event of a student crisis. At times like these there is a crisis management system in place to coordinate the university's response and to ensure that those affected -- including the student directly involved, friends, roommates, and family members -- are getting the services they need. A crisis manager can be paged at any time by calling the Cornell Police at 255-1255
