Stay Safe: Active Shooter Drill to be Held April 12
Cypress College Campus Safety will test the college's emergency alert system concerning an active shooter scenario on Wednesday, April 12, at 10:20 a.m.
The drill is expected to last 15 minutes. All on campus should shelter in place for the duration of the drill. The campus community will also receive three different alerts over the 15 minutes:
- In the first alert you will be notified that this is a test, there is an active shooter on campus, and you should shelter in place using the Run – Hide – Fight method.
- The second alert will notify you that the shooter has been contained but to continue to shelter in place.
- The final alert will notify you that it is safe to resume normal activities.
Learn More About the Drill
Notifications will be sent through our Rave Alert Emergency Notification System. You should already be signed up. To confirm you are signed up or to make sure that Cypress College has the most up-to-date contact numbers, please verify and update your emergency contact information in myGateway. ("Student" tab → under "Personal Info" click on "Set Text Message Alert Preferences.")
Please shelter in place for the duration of the drill. Although we are not asking you to fully climb under your desk, we ask that faculty and staff close office and classroom doors, turn off the lights, and have everyone silence their cell phones. If you are in a location where your department has identified a “safe zone” then practice retreating to that location.
