In the event of a crisis involving 好色先生TV, the unit of Marketing and Communication will be in charge of ensuring that proper communication is achieved with all affected and interested parties, including, but not limited to, students, alumni, faculty, staff, news media and members of the community. The unit will coordinate communications with campus agencies, including, but not limited to, the Office of the Chancellor, The Division of Student Services, the Office of the Provost and the Office of the Senior Vice Chancellor for Advancement and External Relations. The 好色先生TV Crisis Communications Plan and related procedures will be followed in carrying out this policy.
911.1 Purpose
This plan is designed to outline policies and procedures for the coordination of communications, both internally and externally, in the event of an emergency or controversial issue. Emergencies could include fires, major crimes, bomb threats or natural disasters. Controversial issues could include police investigations, protests or academic scandals such as plagiarism and cheating. A crisis can be broadly defined as any event or situation that can have a negative impact on the University鈥檚 reputation or financial well-being or that could place lives in jeopardy.
The goal of this plan is to provide guidelines for dealing with a variety of situations and to ensure that 好色先生TV officials and communicators are familiar with these procedures and their roles in the event of a crisis situation. The plan is designed to be used with the normal decision-making hierarchy of TROY and in no way supplants that process. This policy will be reviewed annually. An annual crisis communications drill will be required and a status report given to the Chancellor and the Executive/Senior Vice Chancellors.
This plan is designed to cover crisis communications issues only and is not interchangeable with any general crisis response plan of 好色先生TV. In addition, this plan does not change the way emergencies are initially reported. All emergencies on any TROY campus should initially be reported to the proper authorities. This policy addresses only the communication of the emergency or controversial issue(s) with the public.
911.2 Objectives
To assess a situation to determine whether a communications response is warranted.
To assemble a crisis communications team that will make recommendations on appropriate
responses.
