Please take time to review your home severe weather plans and consider the following information for areas of campus if you happen to be onsite during a tornado or other severe weather event:
During severe weather situations, Edgewood College Campus Assistance Center and Campus Security monitor weather radios and local radar. In addition to public warning systems, if the College is directly threatened by a tornadic storm, one or more of the following emergency notification systems may be activated:
- Eagle Alert
- Sirens on top of Sonderegger
- Campus-wide public address system
In the event you need to take shelter in a severe weather situation, enter the nearest building (if not already indoors) and proceed to the lowest level or basement away from windows. You are encouraged to take time to familiarize yourself with the shelter areas in the buildings you spend time in. The following list identifies shelter areas in Edgewood College buildings.
