Professor Presents Evacuation Design Guidelines

Assistant Professor of Art, Claudine Jaenichen, presented her research and evacuation design guidelines to Emergency Managers, FEMA and local government agencies and consultants at the National Evacuation Conference in New Orleans. The conference brought together the fields of transportation and emergency management to discuss evacuation planning to accommodate the needs of all people before, during and after a major disaster. The purpose of the conference was to foster an interdisciplinary exchange of ideas surrounding a broad range of evacuation issues, particularly mass evacuations prompted by disasters.
