Fire Drills in University Buildings Begin on June 14

Changes in the Ohio Fire Code mandate that annual fire drills are required in the majority of university buildings. The first of those drills will be conducted by UC Public Safety on Monday, June 14, with the schedule running throughout the rest of  the summer.

Drills will be run between the hours of 9 a.m. and 2:30 p.m., except on Wednesdays, when they will be conducted between 1 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. The schedule is tentative, with drills rescheduled in cases of inclement weather.

• Monday, June 14: Engineering Research Center, Lindner Hall, Blegen Library
