MTSU tests its tornado sirens on campus each month to ensure proper operations. Each test lasts only a few moments, and no safety actions are required.
The university also notifies the campus and surrounding neighborhoods before these monthly tests.
The campus community can prepare for emergency weather situations anytime by checking MTSU’s list of “safe places” at bit.ly/MTSUSafePlaces.
