Oct 14, 2025 The Great CA Shakeout Drill

On Thursday, Oct. 16 at 10:16 a.m., get ready to DROP where you are, COVER your head, or get under a sturdy desk or table, and HOLD ON to something stable. Remain in place until the simulated shaking stops.

This five-minute drill is part of the Great California ShakeOut, a worldwide earthquake preparedness exercise. This year, over 10 million Californians are expected to participate. No evacuation is required during this drill. We encourage all members of the campus community to participate in Thursday's drill.
