Union Police Department Holding Active Shooter Drill on Campus Jan. 9, 11

On Tuesday, January 9 and Thursday, January 11, the Union Police Department will hold active shooter drills at East Central College.

The training sessions will be held from 11:30 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. in Hansen Hall both days. ECC faculty and staff will take part in the training. Because of winter break, classes are not currently in session for students on campus.

“This exercise will be an important training opportunity for area law enforcement,” said East Central College President Dr. Jon Bauer, “and will better enable our faculty and staff to understand what this situation could involve.”

During the drills, campus will still be open. Any student needing assistance for the Spring 2018 semester can visit the Student Services Center located in Buescher Hall.
