Outdoor Emergency Notification System maintenance and testing Wednesday and Thursday

Public Safety Tuesday April 22, 2025

Georgia College & State University will conduct maintenance and testing on the Outdoor Emergency Notification System (siren system) throughout the day Wednesday, April 23, 2025, and into possibly Thursday, April 24, 2025. There may be multiple rounds of the outdoor sirens going off. No action is required during the maintenance and testing, and all campus operations should continue as normal.

There are three sirens operated by GCSU in Baldwin County: one on West Campus and two on Main Campus.

This testing program is designed to maintain a reliable warning system and meet recommended testing guidelines. Additionally, we want to maximize the effectiveness of the Outdoor Emergency Notification System. By performing maintenance and tests, we hope to enhance awareness and education regarding emergency preparedness at Georgia College and within the local community.

For more information on the Outdoor Emergency Notification System and other campus emergency systems, please visit the emergency systems page on the Public Safety website.
