Greetings Campus Community,
Simplex is performing an update on the fire alarm system in the Public Affairs Center (PAC). As part of the update procedures, the system will need to be tested.
On Tuesday, March 18, from 3 to 4 p.m., horns will be sounded intermittently in PAC. Evacuations are not necessary during this testing period. However, please do not ignore alarms that sound outside that testing window.
