Emergency Preparedness and Response

On Wednesday,  May 21, at approximately 3 p.m., Azusa Pacific University will test a new emergency public address (PA) system on East Campus. A siren and announcement will be audible to the campus community, in addition to some of APU's neighboring homes and businesses.

This test allows APU to become familiar with the system's capabilities and range.

In the wake of the Virginia Tech tragedy and the Union University tornado, college and university campuses must reevaluate and improve safety measures. The PA system extends Azusa Pacific's efforts to enhance the university's emergency preparedness. Installation is expected by fall 2008.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. For more information on APU's emergency preparedness, visit www.apu.edu/response/.
