April 26 and 27. This is a test. This is only a test.  

Eckerd College puts the health and safety of its students, faculty, staff and neighboring community among its highest priorities. With a recent grant from the Department of Homeland Security, the College will be installing an emergency siren. The College will test the siren for the first time on April 26-27. The siren will sound to alert individuals who are outdoors on and near the College campus that they should move indoors to seek shelter from an imminent danger such as a person at large with a weapon on or near campus or a waterspout or tornado warning for our area. Stay tuned for more information...
