There is nothing scarier than not being in the know. If you are a student, faculty or staff member, or a parent of a student here, we highly encourage you be signed up for Code Maroon notifications. The timely notification of emergency conditions is essential to preserve safety and security on campus. To register, go to codemaroon.tamu.edu 👍🏼

Hurricane season is officially here (June 1 - Nov. 30). The best time to prepare isn't when a storm is on the radar - it's right now (before all the shelves at H-E-B are empty 😉). Take a few minutes this week to check your disaster kits and emergency supplies to ensure you have what you need should a hurricane hit. If you don't know where to get something or want to learn more about how to get prepared, visit noaa.gov/hurricane-prep or drop a question below 👇!

Yesterday, we hosted two cadets from the Texas Emergency Management Academy-Fort Worth for a tour of our campus operations. We were lucky enough to meet them at a recent training in Fort Worth. Emergency management is all about building relationships, both on and off campus. You never want to be meeting someone for the first time in the middle of an emergency. We are thankful for the opportunity to keep expanding our network and working with professional colleagues to keep our communities safe!

Last week, we took some of our S.A.F.E.R. members on a tour of Kyle Field to see our command center, some of the back-end operational pieces, and of course, the field. Glad y’all could make it out!
