Campus-wide earthquake drill advisory

PLU will be conducting an earthquake drill Tuesday, April 22 at 9 a.m. This drill will be held campus-wide, and will be announced. Emergency Programs Manager Jennifer Wambolt advises students that there may also be an air horn signal that will signal the drill.
Classes in session will stop to practice earthquake preparation, followed by exiting the building to designated emergency areas. Students will be allowed back into buildings before 9:55 a.m. after the Emergency Building Coordinator finishes checking the building and staff takes role for students and other office employees.

Students are also reminded to take their belongings with them when evacuating. Emergency kits are also available at the Garfield Bookstore for students that wish to purchase one for emergency situation.
