Abstract or Description

Emergency Call Boxes have been implemented into the security procedures at Colby College. The purpose of this project is to evaluate the visibility of the Emergency Call Boxes that can be located by an accompanying blue light. I found that 44.2% of my study area has visibility of a blue light, 6 buildings of 38 buildings at Colby college have less than 50% visibility in the area around the building, and 16.7% of paths and roads do not have visibility of a blue light.
