Messages to share

Help increase awareness about campus fire safety in your community by sharing these messages on social media.

• Cook only where it is allowed. Set a timer on your phone to remind you that food is cooking.
• Never leave a burning candle unattended.
• Make sure cigarettes and ashes are out. Never toss hot cigarettes butts or ashes in the trash can.
• After a party, check for cigarette butts, especially under cushions. Chairs and sofas catch on fire fast and burn fast.
• Don’t smoke when you have been drinking or are drowsy.
• Never use an extension cord with large appliances, like a refrigerator.
• Do not overload electrical outlets.
