University Strengthens Safety with Streamlined Fire Protection Approach
Nestled in the shadows of the Appalachian Mountains, the University of North Georgia’s main campus in the town of Dahlonega is home to approximately 6,700 students and consists of 35 buildings, including academic and dormitory facilities as well as dining halls and student centers.
Having people spread out across such an expansive campus complex meant that the university needed to streamline their fire alarm systems to be able to respond quickly and effectively in the event of an emergency. The job of overhauling the campus’ fire alarm systems was no easy task, however, and fell to Kim Harris, the university’s electronic systems technician.
