Fire Safety tips for home and the workplace. Brought to you in part by the "U.S. Fire Administration" Electrical Fire Safety

Electrical fires in our homes claim the lives of 280 Americans each year. Many of these fires are caused by incorrectly installed wiring and overloaded circuits and extension cords.

  • Winter fires can be prevented! The following electrical fire safety tips can help you maintain a fire-safe home this winter season.
  • Routinely check your electrical appliances and wiring.
  • Frayed wires can cause fires. Replace all worn, old or damaged appliance cords immediately.
  • Replace any electrical tool if it causes even small electrical shocks, overheats, shorts out, or gives off smoke or sparks.
  • Keep electrical appliances away from wet floors and counters; pay special care to electrical appliances in the bathroom and kitchen.
  • Buy electrical products evaluated by a nationally recognized laboratory, like UL.
  • Keep clothes, curtains, and other potentially combustible items at least three feet from all heaters.
  • If an appliance has a three-prong plug, use it only in a three-slot outlet. Never force it to fit into a two-slot outlet or extension cord.
  • Don't allow children to play with or around electrical appliances like space heaters, irons, and hair dryers.
  • Use safety closures to "child-proof" electrical outlets.
  • Use electrical extension cords wisely; never overload extension cords or wall sockets.
  • Immediately shut off, then professionally replace, light switches that are hot to the touch and lights that flicker.

For more information on electrical fire safety, visit the U.S. Fire Administration's website.

The 100% ID check will be in effect at the entrances to all buildings. If you are a student, a member of the faculty or staff, a valid York College ID will be required to gain access to the campus. Please wear your college ID at all times while on campus, as doing so will help Public Safety Officers quickly and easily verify your identify as you move between buildings and around the grounds of the campus.  Public Safety Officers will be available at all entrances to help you should you need assistance during this transition.

Also beginning April 20th, IDs will be checked at the outdoor Public Safety booth located at the Guy R. Brewer entrance to the Academic Core.  IDs will no longer be checked at the indoor Public Safety booth located at the Guy R. Brewer entrance to the Academic Core.  Please be aware, however, that random ID checks may occasionally be conducted at that indoor location and that a 100% ID check may be reinstated if circumstances so warrant. 

Visitors to the campus will be required to present a valid picture ID and be required to sign-in upon entry to all buildings. Or, in the case of the Guy R. Brewer Boulevard entrance, at the outdoor Public Safety booth. 

I am pleased to inform you that also beginning April 20, the doors in the student cafeteria that lead to the outdoor plaza may be used to enter or re-enter the Academic Core.  In addition, the gate on the north side of the breezeway that connects the Academic Core to the “H” wing will be open, thus making it possible for you to enter the “H” wing directly from the Guy R. Brewer Boulevard entrance without first entering the Academic Core.  The exterior Public Safety booth will be staffed by two Public Safety Officers and will have the same operating hours as all other entrances to the campus.
