Members of the media,
On Thursday, August 18, 2011, from 8 a.m. to Noon the Calvin College Campus Safety Department, along with local police, fire and emergency medical services, will be conducting an armed threat and chemical release exercise on our campus. NOTE: THIS IS JUST AN EXERCISE!
We are conducting this exercise to test the responsiveness of college and emergency officials in the event of a critical incident. Such an exercise is also very important to first responders of the community to hone their skills and revise any plans/protocols that may require change.
We wanted to alert you to this so that you are informed in case you receive phone calls from your viewers/listeners/readers who are wondering what is going on at Calvin tomorrow morning.
If you have any questions, feel free to call Campus Safety Director Bill Corner at 616-526-6751.
