Dear Adelphi Community,
The Department of Public Safety and Transportation will conduct regularly scheduled testing and maintenance of Adelphi’s fire life safety systems (standpipes and sprinklers) on our Garden City campus on Wednesday, April 9, Thursday, April 10, and Friday, April 11.
Please note that testing will only impact Residence Halls A and B and Parking Field 7 on these dates.
This testing is required by New York State and should have little or no impact on your day. During tests, you may hear an alarm for a few seconds, but evacuation is unnecessary. In a true emergency, the alarms ring continuously, and we directly communicate the need to evacuate.
Following testing, there may be a slight discoloration of the water in some campus buildings. This temporary condition is easily solved by running the water for a minute or two.
Thank you for your understanding and support of our community’s continued safety and wellbeing.
