The fire alarm which took place today at 1:45 p.m. in Middleton Library was a drill, said Andrena Keesee, facility manager for Middleton Library.The library performs the drill twice per year at random times to judge the library staff’s ability to evacuate the area in a timely fashion, Keesee said.The drill went as expected, she said.Keesee said she wished students would respond more quickly because they often don’t hear the alarm when they use headphones or are so focused on their studies.”It’s good they have the drills, but not in the middle of the day when people have stuff to do.” said Thayer Jones, civil engineering freshman. “I don’t have enough time in between classes to get stuff done, and I had to get up and leave and then just come back for a drill.”—-Contact Xerxes A.
