Campus Fire Safety

As a member of the Life Safety Services Group here at Bentley College, the main objective of my daily activities is to ensure the safety of the students, personnel and visitors of this campus. Fire prevention on this campus is done by interpreting the local fire prevention codes and also through the application of fire protection engineering principles. Fire prevention activities include routinely inspecting campus buildings, addressing the concerns of building occupants, and providing training both by request and per local regulation requirements. I am also involved with the periodic testing of all the life safety systems, including detection, notification, and suppression systems.

The Princeton Review scores colleges on the fire safety of their residence halls.  This year Bentley received 99 points, which is the maximum awarded.  All residence halls are equipped with full sprinkler and fire alarm systems.  This along with the increased educational programs has reduced the number and severity of fires on our campus.
