MTSU plans to test its tornado sirens on campus and at the Miller Coliseum Complex Tuesday, Oct. 10, at 12:20 p.m. This will be a brief, routine test of the system, and no safety actions will be required.

If harsh weather is in the area around the time of the scheduled testing, the test will be canceled.

The university notifies the campus and surrounding neighborhoods before these monthly tests.

Tests are conducted on alternating Tuesdays and Wednesdays to minimize distractions for classes and community neighbors.
