Emergencies
If you smell gas, experience flooding or encounter any issue that poses immediate danger to people or property, please follow these steps:
- Contact your RA on duty immediately. If you can't reach them, contact your residence hall front desk or Cougar Village Commons to reach the RA on duty.
- Examples of emergency issues: Overflowing toilet, no AC in the summer, no heat in the winter, no hot water, refrigerator not cooling or any serious water leak.
During Business Hours (7:00 a.m. - 3:30 p.m.): Call University Housing Facilities Management at 618-650-3626.

Severe Weather Protocol
In the event of a tornado or other severe weather, a long, wavering siren will sound. Immediately proceed to a secure area such as a hallway or bathroom, away from windows. If already in a safe space, crouch low, cover your head, and use available items like mattresses or blankets for extra protection from debris.
