Kansas Severe Weather Awareness Week is today (Monday, March 6) to Friday, March 10. The WSU community will actively participate in the statewide safety tornado drill at 10 a.m. tomorrow (Tuesday, March 7). This will be a mandatory university-wide drill to satisfy the requirements of the federal Clery Act. All personnel -- faculty, staff, students and guests -- are expected to go to a designated shelter until the all clear. The ShockerAlert system also will be activated during this drill and provide information about when you may resume normal activities. This drill will be educational for all involved and provide those overseeing campus safety a way of evaluating the effectiveness of WSU's emergency preparedness during a tornado.
