Here's an e-mail sent from Pepperdine's Public Relations Office regarding an audible test scheduled for this Wednesday.

"Pepperdine University’s emergency operations team is working with a vendor to install an emergency siren and notification system on the Malibu campus. The system will be used to alert the community of a local emergency. Two audible tests are scheduled to take place Wednesday, November 7, 2007 at approximately 10:50 a.m. and 11:20 a.m. Each test will take approximately 10 minutes. During each test you may hear the sound of a siren as well as a voice giving mock instructions regarding the test."
