It's the first Friday of the month at noon--what's that noise?
An emergency siren is tested the first Friday of each month, March through November. The test will consist of a one to three minute steady tone. This siren would be used in the event of an actual emergency such as a tornado.
I overdid it at the Rec Center. Can I get some help on campus?
Yes, check out the Injury Care Clinic: https://www.gvsu.edu/icc/
