With respect to fires on-campus student housing, Yeshiva University makes three disclosures.  It publishes an annual fire safety report for each campus, it annually reports its fire statistics to the U.S. Department of Education (the “Education Department”), and it makes, keeps, and maintains a daily fire log for each campus.  The procedures for each of these three disclosures are described below.
