On Friday, December 13, 2013, the Office of Emergency Preparedness and the Police Department will be conducting a shelter-in-place exercise in the West Village Commons. The exercise will commence at approximately 9:30 a.m. and be completed by approximately 9:45 a.m. Access to the building will not be permitted during these times.
We will exercise the steps that can be taken by students, faculty and staff to protect themselves and others and evaluate the responses to the incident.
This exercise is designed to simulate the shelter-in-place of faculty, staff and students necessitated by a criminal event and to test and evaluate the capabilities of responding departments under these conditions. It will provide an opportunity to test and evaluate plans and procedures, build partnerships and identify areas of improvement.
There will be no simulated criminal event or activity during the exercise.
If you have any questions, please contact Cpl. Joe Gregory at x4-5951.
