Secure and Teach Procedure

If you receive notification that Lower Columbia College has issued a "Secure and Teach" alert, immediately do the following:

  • Lock all exterior doors.
  • Continue to conduct business as usual, but be on alert for future instructions.

A "Secure and Teach" alert is only issued when there is a reported thread in the surrounding community that has the potential to impact campus.
