The WSU Office of Emergency Management will be conducting the spring semester test of the WSU Alert Pullman system at 2 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 26, on the Pullman campus.
Faculty, staff, and students associated with the Pullman campus who have signed up for emergency notifications will receive text messages, phone calls, emails, and desktop alerts on select computers which will be clearly identified as a test.
During the test, please consider the actions you might take in a real emergency. Look for areas in which you might shelter in place and be aware of exits around you. During a real event, WSU will activate appropriate components of the system to alert people that they should be aware of the situation, assess their individual circumstances, and act to take appropriate safety precautions.
WSU has developed the WSU Alert Pullman System to disseminate official information via email, text messages, telephone, loudspeakers, the Alert website, and other means to notify the campus population of emergencies or threatening situations.
Your consideration, cooperation, and patience of students, faculty, and staff during the test is greatly appreciated.
Questions can be directed to the WSU Office of Emergency Management at 509-335-7471 or emergencymanagement@wsu.edu. All WSU Pullman students, staff, and faculty can subscribe to WSU Alert Pullman.
