Emergency Management & Preparedness

Great Participation on Campus Wide tornado drill!

Whomever said "If you don't like the weather in Kansas, just wait five minutes" was quite accurate! Sun, rain, ice, cold - as winter quickly approaches spring we must be prepared for any type of weather! That includes inclement weather. Just as you would look at the forecast to see if you need shorts or snow pants to prepare for the outdoors, you must also prepare yourself by knowing what to do when disaster does strike.

Thankfully, KUMC practiced and prepared for this inclement weather by conducting a campus wide tornado drill. The participation was great and some wonderful opportunities for improvement came to light! Have additional questions about the drill? Contact Kelly Morken, at kmorken@kumc.edu.
