Exact words of Caller’s Threat:

Calmly, after caller pauses, ask as many as possible of the following questions. Most bomb threats are so short, that it may not be possible to conduct this entire procedure. Just ask what you can. It is very important that you remember as much about the call as possible. In all cases contact the UNT Police at x-3000. 

After the caller hangs up, immediately get a dial tone and dial *57. By using *57 the phone company can trace the last call received from your phone. You will hear a recording letting you know that your call has successfully been traced and you will be given a 1-800 number. Write the number down and hang up. Then call the UNT Police from another phone.

When the building has been cleared, outside doors will be locked to keep anyone from returning to the building. SECs will then make sure all employees are present.
