Emergency Status

Currently, there is no emergency at Washington University. In the event of an emergency, this site will be regularly updated to provide information to the University community.

Swine flu

There have been no cases of swine flu reported on the WUSTL campus. The University's Emerging Infectious Disease Task Force continues to monitor the situation and plan for the upcoming flu season. More information about swine flu is available on the epidemic page.

Monthly outdoor siren testing

Tests of the University’s outdoor warning sirens, located on the roofs of Brookings and Seigle halls, will take place on the first Monday of each month in conjunction with St. Louis County’s outdoor warning siren test. The tests will last approximately two minutes and are weather permitting.

Students, faculty and staff all need to know where to go and what to do during an emergency. Before a crisis occurs, take some time to become familiar with the ways to respond to potential emergencies.
