University of Nevada, Reno Police Services will be testing emergency preparedness systems at 9 a.m. Wednesday. During this all-systems test, University Police Services will activate several campus safety platforms, including the outdoor notification system capable of signaling a loud audible tone or siren alert in an emergency situation. Other emergency communication mechanisms include a text message notification; campus wide e-mail; posting to University Twitter and Facebook accounts; the department’s AM information radio station 1670 am, and a scrolling banner on campus computers. Assistant Chief Todd Renwick says,“Safety is always top of mind and, with the new school year around the corner, now is the perfect time to make sure the systems we have in place are working seamlessly.”
