WashU Emergency Management

Are you planning a visit to WashU this summer or preparing to start classes this fall? Now is the perfect time to take a few simple steps to help you stay informed and prepared before you arrive on campus.

Preparedness starts before the first day of class. Small actions today can make a significant difference during an emergency. Learn more about these topics and more at emergency.washu.edu.

Together, we are WashU Ready.

Wherever your summer plans take you — preparation matters.

From travel safety and severe weather awareness to heat safety and campus preparedness, small steps can make a big difference.

As Memorial Day weekend marks the unofficial start of summer, the WashU Emergency Management team encourages everyone to stay informed, stay weather aware, and stay prepared throughout the season.

Together, we are WashU Ready.

Leading by example, our own Ky Kee gave us one more reason to celebrate during Commencement season.

Senior Program Manager Ky Kee proudly crossed the Washington University in St. Louis stage after successfully completing the Program Management Certificate through the university’s WashU Continuing & Professional Studies program.

Throughout the semester, Ky balanced her professional responsibilities with her academic pursuits, demonstrating the same commitment to excellence, lifelong learning, and continuous improvement that she brings to the WashU Emergency Management team every day.

Congratulations, Ky, on this outstanding accomplishment. Your dedication to professional growth and your commitment to serving the WashU community continue to set a strong example for all of us.

Together, we are WashU Ready.
