MTSU plans to conduct a routine monthly test of its tornado sirens on campus Wednesday, March 12, at 11:15 a.m.

This is a brief, routine test of the system, and no safety actions will be required.

The university notifies the campus and surrounding neighborhoods before these tests each month. Tests are conducted on alternating Tuesdays and Wednesdays to minimize distractions for classes and neighbors.
