What type of emergencies do the sirens indicate?
• Hostile Intruder (Active Shooter) • Large Chemical Release near Campus • Natural Disasters (Tornado) Where Can I hear the sirens? Although the sirens will be loudest within the limits of campus, close proximity neighbors will be able to hear the warning system. If you are indoors when the siren is activated, it is not expected that you will hear the sirens or the voice message that follows. If the siren system were to be used during an actual emergency, information would also be sent through the MIR3 InCampus Alert System and on the Brown homepage. Who can I contact for more information? If you have any questions or comments regarding Brown University’s ESWS please contact ESWS@brown.edu or by telephone at 401-863-3353.
