CHAPTER 12
SAFETY AND SECURITY
12.1 Safety and Security Procedures
Comprehensive Safety and Security Procedures and information can be found in the Safety and
Security SOP.
12.2 Defacing or Destroying Property
Any cadet who defaces or destroys property belonging to MMI or another cadet will be held
financially responsible for the damage and will face disciplinary action including possible
dismissal or expulsion.
This includes any attempt to carve or otherwise mark in a permanent fashion the façade of the
Chapel or any other structure on MMI. As historical landmarks, the intentional vandalism of
these structures will automatically impose the strictest penalties.
12.3 Firearms, Knives, Ammunition, or Other Weapons
Cadets are not authorized to bring any ammunition or weapons of any type, whether operative or
not on campus. Additionally, cadets are not allowed to store firearms in privately owned
vehicles. Such weapons include, but are not limited to knives (of any size), steel tip darts, clubs,
spear guns, air pistols or rifles, nun chucks, slingshots, bows and arrows, crossbows, paintball
guns, and other weapons. Prohibited weapons will be confiscated and retained by the
Commandant of Cadets’ Office. Possession or storage is a Category III offense.
12.4 Fireworks or Explosives
The possession or use of fireworks or explosives of any kind, to include chemical reaction
devices (such as MRE bombs) are strictly prohibited and a federal offense. Disciplinary actions
may include dismissal or expulsion.
12.5 Fires or Bomb Threats
The cadet or person discovering the fire will:
a. Activate fire alarm!
b. Alert all occupants of the building by shouting, “FIRE! FIRE! FIRE!”
c. Notify the Marion Fire Department at 334-683-6271 or 911.
d. Report the fire or bomb threat to the Commandant of Cadets’ Office during normal
hours or to the OC after hours by the fastest means available.
e. Attempt to extinguish small fires, but ensure the Commandant of Cadets’ Office or
OC is informed immediately.
