you mean like the emperor's new clothes if you can't see how good it is thenyou must be an inept baffoon -----Original Message----- From: Rudkin Margaret [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: 30 April 2002 11:24 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Fire Alarms during Examinations Dear Colleagues At JMU if the alarm is sounded during an exam the building must be vacated; our regulations do not allow examinations to be resumed following an evacuation. There has been a recent increase in the number of "malicious" alarms during examinations. I would be grateful if you could let me know the practice in your institution, is it the same as at JMU, under any circumstances is an exam allowed to resume? Please contact me directly at [log in to unmask] with any relevant information. Thank you. Margaret Rudkin Process Manager (Assessment) Liverpool John Moores University
