Faculty and staff are encouraged to be aware of resources to help them in a potential emergency on campus, including weather or violence-related incidents.

Miami has an Employee Institutional Response Team (E-IRT), at miamioh.edu/president/e-irt, created to respond to situations where there is concern that an employee poses a risk of substantial harm to himself/herself, to others or to property.

 The E-IRT consists of representatives from various campus offices and works collaboratively to assemble relevant information to determine an appropriate course of action.

For concerns that an employee may pose a risk of substantial harm to himself/herself, to someone else or to property, your primary contacts are E-IRT co-chairs Janet Cox (for faculty or unclassified staff in academic affairs units) or Kate Stoss (for classified staff and unclassified staff in nonacademic units).
