1. The system is tested at the beginning of every semester. UNM's Emergency Management team advertises these exercises in advance. Now is a good opportunity to log into theLoboAlerts System (loboalerts.unm.edu) using your UNM NetID and Password to verify your contact information and preferences.

2. If the siren sounds and there was no notice that there would be a test (beginning of the semester, Tuesday, 11:02 am), consider it REAL. Heed the warning and do as instructed.
