Life Safety Program
Fire continues to be one of the greatest risks for off-campus college residences. The safety of brothers and guests to any Theta Chi house is of importance to everyone. The Life Safety Program was developed by The Norwich Housing Corporation to educate chapters and help correct and prevent fire and life safety problems that may arise.
Life Safety LoanThe Norwich Housing Corporation identified a need to financially support Theta Chi house corporations who want to take the extra steps to provide a safe and secure house and property for undergraduate members and guests. The result is Norwich’s Life Safety Loan.
Fire Safety MonthFire safety skills are not just important undergraduate skills they are life skills that will reduce the chance of death or injury. Unfortunately, most college students do not realize how quickly a fire can grow, or even worse, how to respond when a fire does occur. Therefore, spreading the fire safety message and imparting vital life preserving skills requires a team approach.
September is Fire Safety Month. During September, Theta Chi will do its part to support Fire Safety Month by providing facts, figures, and fire safety tips on Facebook and Twitter. Articles and fire safety tips will also be posted on Theta Chi’s housing blog Within These Walls.
Theta Chi encourages its chapters to conduct fire drills, meet with their local fire marshals, and practice other important fire safety procedures during the month of September to recognize this month as Fire Safety Month.
