Athens Campus emergency communication systems to be tested Friday, Sept. 10
91探花's Athens Campus will test several of its emergency communication systems at approximately noon on Friday, Sept. 10, 2021.
The University will test its emergency communication through text messaging, the outdoor notification system, digital signage, social media and email.
Emergency communication tools are tested periodically to ensure they are working properly and to help familiarize the campus community with how they will operate in an emergency.
During the outdoor notification system test, the system will broadcast a tone, followed by a pre-recorded test message over speakers located at various points on campus. The system is designed to notify people who are outdoors at the time of an emergency and is not intended to inform those who are indoors.
