Thanks to those of you who responded regarding fire drills.  However, I
understand a number of colleges/universities do not perform fire drills in
dormitories/residence halls.  In order to look at the subject objectively,
I would appreciate hearing from those institutions that DO NOT conduct
drill and their reasons/justifications.

We are considering both possibilities and will appreciate hearing both
sides.  In addition, if you have an opinion why drills should (or should
not) be conducted in dorms, please post your reasons here.  What better
place to collect the opinions and "hear" the conscience
of the professionals in the field.

Thanks in advance.
