Here is the e-mail the school sent out to everybody this morning at around 5 am (September 28, 2004).
Today, Tuesday, September 28,the campus will be involved in a mock earthquake exercise beginning at 10am.
There are two components to the exercise; First, the entire campus community is asked to participate in a "Duck, Cover, and Hold" drill, promptly at 10am and concluding at 10:03am. Whether you are in class, in a meeting, or in your residence, please stop what you are doing at 10am and DROP, COVER, AND HOLD. You can prepare for the drill by clicking on the links below and watching a film, produced by several CSUMB TAT students, staff, and faculty.
The second part of the exercise will be a mock emergency. In order to test the emergency preparedness of CSUMB, we will conduct an exercise that presumes that a large earthquake hits campus September 28 at 10:03, immediately following the Duck, Cover, and Hold drill. In this exercise, Residence Hall 210 and the Media Learning Center will be impacted and the campus quad will be the center for triage and emergency services. In this drill, the Otter Sports Center will become the emergency shelter.
Please be aware - and tell others - that the purpose of this drill is to ensure that the emergency preparedness team on campus is as well prepared as possible should a real emergency hit the campus. Although we hope that the drill simulates reality as much as possible, please do not be alarmed. All of the people acting injured and being treated by medical personnel are simply participating in the drill.
The Presidio of Monterey's fire department and American Red Cross will join CSUMB's emergency preparedness team to make this drill as realistic as possible.
Please feel free to contact Dino Latino, Manager of Emergency Preparedness, with questions.
Thank you for your cooperation in this very important activity!
Here is the e-mail sent out at 10:45 am. after the real earthquake occured.
At 10:15 a.m. today ( 9/28), during the campus Emergency Earthquake Drill, a 5.9 Richter Scale earthquake occurred near Parkfield, California. This trembler was felt throughout Monterey, San Benito and Santa Cruz counties. No damage has been reported at this time on campus and we are awaiting further reports relating to damage, and recovery from County and State emergency officials.
