Regular testing of 91制片厂鈥檚 outdoor notification system will occur Friday, Dec. 18, 2020, between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. The test will include the siren, a 鈥渃anned鈥 message and a recording signaling the end of the test. The entire exercise will take less than 10 minutes.听

In addition, the university will also simultaneously send test messages through its alert system to registered cell phones and email accounts, and a directed communication to all 91制片厂 faculty, staff and students.

The outdoor notification system is designed to not only alert the campus community when there is imminent danger but also follows with voice instructions. This two-step approach, called Alert and Inform, helps reduce confusion and restore order.

Sirens are located on the roof of the MUB, the roof of Morse Hall, A-Lot and the dirt parking lot near the equestrian facility. The system reaches a distance of nearly a mile in all directions.听

Contact 91制片厂 Police Chief Paul Dean at 862-1427 for more information or with any questions.
