VCU To Test Emergency Siren System Today
by Jason Kenney
VCU is going to have its monthly siren test today. Not sure if the media turnout will be similar to the last few times, but there’s currently a helicopter circling the campus. Though that might be more tied to the excitement at University of Richmond yesterday than anything else.

Is this on a predictable day each month?
I believe it is always at noon on the first Wednesday of the month. It’s set up as a test of the system more than a drill, but just the same, I think it makes students numb and gives a tragic window of opportunity to someone who might want to do harm to folks. Just doesn’t make sense.
