The Undergraduate Fire Squad, which has a tradition of more than a century behind it, assists in the control of crowds at fires, directs students in helping the Hanover Hose Company, supervises salvage work, and cooperates in all possible ways with the precinct fire company. Members of the Fire Squad are excused from classes immediately whenever the fire whistle blows.
