University makes strides toward better communication in event of emergency August 27, 2008 Since last fall semester, Wake Forest University has made significant strides in enhancing how it communicates promptly with students, staff and faculty in the event of an emergency on its Reynolda Campus. In addition, Wake Forest has a new system in place for communicating directly with local police, firefighters and other emergency first responders. The university began this effort in 2007, following the Virginia Tech tragedy. Wake Forest President Nathan O. Hatch directed the university's Crisis Management Team to conduct an intensive review of campus emergency preparedness measures. That review, in part, led to developing an expanded list of ways to reach students, faculty and staff in the event of an emergency. |
