From UNCA:
UNC Asheville will conduct a routine test of its emergency siren system between 12:30 and 1:30 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 20, 2014. The campus community as well as neighborhoods adjacent to campus may hear intermittent warning tones and spoken announcements.
The outdoor sirens are part of UNC Asheville’s BulldogAlert comprehensive emergency notification system. Other than during routine testing, the audible warning system is only used in cases of an active threat to the safety of the campus. For more information, visit bulldogalert.unca.edu.
