PCC Readies for Great 
California ShakeOut

 On October 19, at exactly 10:19 a.m., Pasadena City 
College will join colleges, K-12 schools, and other civic 
institutions around California to take part in the Great 
California ShakeOut.

 This emergency safety drill is designed to help the college 
community better prepare for an earthquake. The drill 
will consist of recognizing how you would best protect 
yourself in your immediate environment by following the 
recommended steps of Drop! Cover!, and Hold On! These 
steps should be practiced during the drill at PCC, CEC/
Foothill Campus, Rosemead, and the Child Development 
Center.

 The drill will be followed by a complete evacuation of all 
rooms and buildings at each of the campuses and CDC. 
Once the all clear signal is given, everyone will be allowed 
back into the buildings.

 For more information on evacuation locations on PCC’s 
various campus, visit our Police and College Safety page.

More information on the procedure to follow in the event 
of an earthquake is available on a video produced by the 
ShakeOut organization at shakeout.org. Interested parties
