Collaborative projects for National Campus Fire Safety Month ... Be part of this nationwide, collaborative effort to develop material for the 2008 campaign which will
be launched on September 9th in Washington, DC. By joining together we can all help design a program that works for everyone!

  • Questions to Ask Campus ...Firewatch publishes a list of questions that parents can ask about fire safety when they are visiting campuses. We would like to update this and make sure that it is relevant to today’s campuses. Here’s your chance to give your thoughts…visit our online form
    and contribute to this project!
  • Slogan for National Campus Fire Safety Month ... The theme for National Campus Fire Safety Month 2008 in September is that fire can happen, no matter where you are – at school, off-campus, on vacation. We’re working on coming up with a slogan that can be used with this theme and a panel of national campus fire safety professionals developed a list of recommendations. Here is your chance to vote on these recommendations
    – or give us your own idea!
  • Tip-A-Day ...In September, Campus Firewatch is going to be publishing a series of fire safety tips each day for campus fire safety professionals to use
    in raising awareness among students. Be a part of this collaborative project
    by submitting your suggestions for a “Tip-A-Day”.
